When Jesus Christ warned the people about the pharisees, he was not mincing word then and today, that warning still holds true. And so is the founder of the Islamic Bridges Television station, Mr. Muzzammil Hassan, pictured here right. "Do what I say but not what I do" and so the man desperately trying to build bridges between violent Islamic extremists and the West, today, proved that certain types of violence is ingrained in certain peoples' DNA. The apostle of tolerance could not himself tolerate his wife walking away from him and so he beheaded her instead. What an irony of life and a self-inflicted injury?
The headless body of Aasiya Zubair Hassan, 37, pictured left, was found at the said Bridges television station in Orchard Park, Buffalo-New York. The accused, Muzzammil Hassan, 44, has been arrested and charged with second-degree murder of his previously soon to be ex-wife. Muzzammil Hassan turned himself in when he went to the police and reported that his wife was dead; following which he led officers to her body at th
e television station. Late Aasiya had filed for divorce on February 6, 2009 following several episodes of domestic violence and obtained an order of protection barring her husband from their Orchard Park home. He killed her during the week of Valentine's day, on February 12, 2009; exactly six days after learning of the impending divorce. Instead of crying her a river to forgive and take him back; buying her a banquet of roses; buying her one heck of a present; taking her out to her choice restaurant for a candle-lit romantic dinner to profess his endless love and thank her for the two beautiful children she gave him, it was her head that was being sawed-off her body by the callous hands of this maniacal eunuch? Muzzammil Hassan, Icheoku says, you deserve a slow, tortuous and painful death and in some cultures, you will be tied at a stake in the wilderness for the birds of prey to dis-bowel you and feast on your entrails.
The couple worked at Bridges TV, a satellite- distributed news and opinion channel, which they founded in 2004 in an effort to counter and negate impressions of Muslim violence and extremism in America. Icheoku says, these Muslim stereotypes prevalent in America and the West generally has now been made whole by Muzzammil Hassan's infradig`nous act of terror. His heinous beheading of his wife tells the remaining story of a supposed stereotyping and fills necessary gaps? This criminal misbehaviour is speculatively linked to attitudes in Muslim societies which sanction terrorist honor-killing, founded on cultural notions that women are subordinate to men and could be disposed at their whims? It is believed that Muslim men in general consider divorce a dishonor on their family and fanatical Muslims, like Muzzammil Hassan, believe further that “honor-killing” is justified as a punishment to a woman for bringing dishonor on a family; so he cut off his wife's head to 
maintain his stupid "honor"? Icheoku says Muzzammil Hassan should be hung by his genitals until he is disgorged and dishonored! How this sub human-specimen still holds tenaciously to such mundane belief after several years of sojourn in America defies every logic. Needless to say he graduated magna cum laude with an MBA from the Simon School of Business at the University of Rochester in 1996?

The couple above right, seen in a picture taken inside their television studio when the going was good, lived at Big Tree Road in Orchard Park Buffalo New York. They are from Waziristan, Pakistan.from where they migrated to the United States several years ago. They have been married for eight (8) years and have two children together, a 6 year old boy and a 4 year old girl. The accused Muzzammil Hassan also has two older children, ages 17 and 18 from a prior relationship. Icheoku asks, what happened to the mother of the two grown-ups or was she also a victim of "honor" killing? Some investigation should commence in that direction, to also unearth the fate suffered by the other woman.
Beheading is real as this recently separated body and head of a sixteen year old Indonesian school-girl shows. Decapitation is not a folk-lore and this is what the scumbag Muzzammil Hassan has caused to happen to his wife, the mother of his two beautiful children? So why should we allow such horrendous murder to be imported to the West disguised as culture? Icheoku says, such barbarism has no place in our western civilization and the book should be thrown at this vermin Muzzammil Hassan. This will say to other would be "honor-killers" that we have zero tolerance for such medieval practices. There is no justification whatsoever to slaughter a fellow human-being with a sharp knife and if this lunatic is not drastically dealt with, other fanatics lurking in our midst, might consider such an option in settling their domestic family disputes in the future. The other day it was in London, then Canada and now New York, which goes to show that these fanatics have no respect for our way of life, our rule of law and must therefore be stopped now, before they bloody our system! Icheoku heretofore declare Muzzammil Hassan the unofficial al-queida terrorist in our midst and says, Enough of this imported terrorism!

Slideshow:U.S. Muslim TV founder charged with beheading wife Play Video Video:Police: Man beheads wife who filed for divorce AP ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. – The crime drips with brutal irony: a woman decapitated, allegedly by her estranged husband, in the offices of the television network the couple founded with the hope of countering Muslim stereotypes.
Muzzammil "Mo" Hassan is accused of beheading his wife last week, days after she filed for divorce. Authorities have not discussed the role religion or culture might have played, but the slaying gave rise to speculation that it was the sort of "honor killing" more common in countries half a world away, including the couple's native Pakistan.
Funeral services for Aasiya Hassan, 37, were Tuesday. Her 44-year-old husband is scheduled to appear for a felony hearing Wednesday.
The Hassans lived in Orchard Park — a well-off Buffalo suburb that hadn't seen a homicide since 1986 — and started Bridges TV there in 2004 with the message of developing understanding between North America and the Middle East and South Asia. The network, available across the U.S. and Canada, was believed to be the first English-language cable station aimed at the rapidly growing Muslim demographic.
Orchard Park Police Chief Andrew Benz said his officers had responded to domestic incidents involving the couple, most recently Feb. 6, the day Mo Hassan was served with the divorce papers and an order of protection.
"I've never heard him raise his voice," said Paul Moskal, who became friendly with the couple while he was chief counsel for the FBI in Buffalo. Moskal would answer questions in forums aired on Bridges TV that were intended to improve understanding between Muslim-Americans and law enforcement.
"His personal life kind of betrayed what he tried to portray publicly," Moskal said.
On Feb. 12, Hassan went to a police station and told officers his wife was dead at the TV studio.
"We found her laying in the hallway the offices were off of," Benz said. Aasiya Hassan's head was near her body.
"I don't know if (the method of death) does mean anything," said the chief, who would not discuss what weapon may have been used. "We certainly want to investigate anything that has any kind of merit. It's not a normal thing you would see."
Hassan was not represented by an attorney at an initial appearance on a charge of second-degree murder. Neither police nor the Erie County district attorney's office knew if he had hired a lawyer.
The New York president of the National Organization for Women, Marcia Pappas, condemned prosecutors for referring to the death as an apparent case of domestic violence.
"This was, apparently, a terroristic version of 'honor killing,'" a statement from NOW said.
Nadia Shahram, who teaches family law and Islam at the University at Buffalo Law School, explained honor killing as a practice still accepted among fanatical Muslim men who feel betrayed by their wives.
"If a woman breaks the law which the husband or father has placed for the wife or daughter, honor killing has been justified," said Shahram, who was a regular panelist on a law show produced by Bridges TV. "It happens all the time. It's been practiced in countries such as Pakistan and in India."
Acquaintances said Mo Hassan was not overtly religious — co-workers did not see him pray, for instance. But he seemed to adhere to many traditional practices.
Nancy Sanders, the television station's news director for 2 1/2 years, remembers him asking her to move her feet during her job interview so he would not see her legs. She was wearing a skirt and stockings.
He also would not let women enter his office unless his wife was there, and he blocked the station from airing a story about the first Muslim woman to win the title of Miss England in 2005, Sanders said.
Acquaintances said Aasiya Hassan was trained as an architect. Sanders described her as obedient to her husband, and that she wore a traditional hijab for a time but later stopped without explanation.
"She was beautiful, small, delicately built," she said, "while Mo would fill up a door frame. I always thought of him as a gentle giant."
Sanders, who left Bridges TV a year ago, said co-workers traded stories about Hassan's apparent violent streak, including one which had him running his wife's car off the road while the couple's two young children were inside. Aasiya herself never spoke of it, she said.
"I just do not feel it was an honor killing," Sanders added. "I think it was domestic abuse that got out of control."
Erie County District Attorney Frank Sedita did not immediately respond to The Associated Press' request for a copy of the order of protection issued against Mo Hassan. Divorce records are sealed in New York state. Aasiya Hassan's lawyer would not reveal the reasons for the divorce filing.
Hassan graduated with an MBA from the Simon School of Business at the University of Rochester in 1996, according to the TV station's Web site. Bridges broadcasts all over the United States and in Canada on various cable providers and Verizon FiOS. As of 6 p.m. Tuesday, the network was not broadcasting in the Buffalo area.
There was no answer at the network on Tuesday and it's Web site has a message saying Bridges is shocked and saddened and requests privacy.
