It still seems to be vanishingly unlikely -- yes, there have been honor killings, though the US is not the UK, and there are (as far as I can tell) no similar cases in the US. Especially since it was Ramadan; I imagine that Adnan's father -- as well as the imam & others -- have very good alibis.

Also, I really don't think a neocon think tank is the best source on the Middle East, especially given Pakistan is not the Middle East.

It is very important to remember that Muslims are not a monolith; that domestic violence is more common in other ethnic groups (that is, not South Asian), that Islam and Islamism are very different things. I can find no evidence that Muslim men in America are more likely to commit murder than white men, and if we're opening the investigation to every man who knew Hae existed, we're going to be here a really long time.

I'd recommend [Karima Bennoune's Your Fatwa Does Not Apply Here]
(http://www.amazon.com/Your-Fatwa-Does-Apply-Here/dp/0393350258/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1419736930&sr=8-1&keywords=your+fatwa+does+not+apply+here) to get an idea of the diversity of adherents to Islam.

Oh, and the vision of the mosque Adnan's father attended?

"ISB aspires to be the anchor of a growing Muslim community with diverse backgrounds, democratically governed, relating to one another with inclusiveness and tolerance, and interacting with neighbors in an Islamic exemplary manner."

They also have an interfaith council, which is generally a sign that the mosque is not very fundamentalist.
