You can get more time for killing a dog in the US then you would for killing your sister in Jordan.

It depends on where you are on the map, brother. While your statement might hold true in an Arab country like Jordan, the same can't necessarily be said about Muslims in Ethiopia, who have been living in harmony with Christians for hundreds of years. It has everything to do with the Arab culture, which has greatly contributed to the distorting of a religion that is not much different than Christianity.
