I do believe that the world is responsible to help other countries in need, especially if it is to protect the rights of others. I found this article very disturbing in many different ways. I cannot even imagine a mother-in-law beheading her own daughter because her daughter did not want to go into prostitution. How can a mother cold-heartedly murder her own daughter? Why would you want your daughter to go through such turmoil such as prostitution just to get money? Twenty year old Mah Gul stood by her rights as a human and say no, but was unfortunately betrayed by her own family.
This article should raise flags all around the world because a girl was defied her own rights as a person and was forced into something she did not want to do. The theme of Rights and Responsibilities really refers to this article because every person has God given rights to follow, such as the basic needs to live. Mah Gul had her rights taken away from her by her family and did not have the ability to say no to something she did not want to do. Also, the theme solidarity can be found in this article as well. Every person is created in the image and likeliness of God and are all created equal. We are all children of God and should be treated with equal amounts of respect. Mah Gul's family did not treat Mah Gul with any respect and saw her as an object, not a person. This is morally wrong on many levels and I am shocked on how brutally and disrespectfully this girl was treated.
