That's tragic. I thought Iraq was a little better about this than their neighbors.
The government is "a little better" than their neighbors. Individual people have no limits to their insanity.

What would Mohammed say?

That's a bit of a loaded question since there's so many of them out there.

Without reading the article, I'm going to assume it was a family member.

Nope. Well most likely not anyway. She was killed by a drive by assassin on a motorcycle.

Unfortunately lots of right wingers in the Middle East act like their American counterparts - blaming Tiktok or other social media for supposedly "corrupting morals" and pushing for it to be banned. It's already banned in Taliban Afghanistan.

"umm fahad" implies she's married. I've seen enough American TV to learn "it's always the spouse"

Would also imply she left behind kids which just adds to this sad situation

Ah, the tried and true tradition of honour killing in the Middle East. Imagine killing someone just because you don't like what they post on social media. Fucking regressive fuck weasels.

Doesn't honor killing involve family, though?

Could still be family. Could also just be morality policing. Either way, it's unacceptable.

Iraq isn't one of those places where you're required to cover your face. I haven't seen any of her tiktoks but based on her arrest the article suggests she might have been a LGBT advocate.

And there's no evidence it was her family that killed her.

Another person's life cut short because they had the poor judgment to not be born a man and be subjugated.

Oh, just a reference to honor killing.

I guess that explains why Biden followed Trump's footsteps and banned Tiktok.

Cause banning TikTok is the same thing as legalised stoning of people who are LGBT
