All I can say, is that it is well known that the Montenegrin and Albanian honour killing code, is almost the same.

He's half monte and half alban.
Is this your mix as well?

Wrong, Marko Miljanov was full monte. His mother was a catholic indeed who was an Albanophone, doesn't make her Albanian.
Also, blood flows through the father in our culture.

Doesn't a "true" Monte hold Serb origin?

Nothing a little google search or wiki couldn't help  lol jk Marko Miljanov didn't invent Cojstvo i Junastvo though, its existed much longer than he. Emer - in the Crete killing however, the woman did not commit adultery - she was actually spited for denying all the men's sexual advances |

Not honor killing in Christian countries.
Of course we don't want to talk about the Pakis, Turks and Arabs who cut eachother's heads off, its cliche.

Who said it's evil? That's pretty ethno-centric of you

You don't think honour killings are evil then?
How am I being ethocentric?

I don't think they're evil, I don't think they're good. They're just a mode of living.
The ethnocentric individual will judge other groups relative to his or her own particular ethnic group or culture, especially with concern to language, behavior, customs, and religion.

There is no sense in killing the victim. This is a cowards way of dealing with things.
It would take real courage, and honour to avenge your wife.

Well it looks like you don't know what it means, because saying that a certain discussion is "cliche" is not ethnocentric. You passed judgement on a specific part of foreign culture from the standpoint of your own (British/Western), and hence, you participated in ethnocentrism. |

Where did I pass judgement on a "specific" part of foreign culture?
Honour Killings aren't specific to one culture they exist in many different cultures around the world, from Sicily to Turkey, from Eritrea to Albania.
