Why is it that if a woman is raped she was to be publicly humiliated and/or put to death? Shouldn't it be the other way around, with the perpetrator being put to death (preferablly castrated beforehand)?

You have to remember that we're talking about Muslims here.
In Islam, if a woman is raped, it's HER FAULT for not staying in the home under her husbands or fathers control. Rape s seen as being just a woman's just deserts for daring to step out from under her mans thumb.
EDIT - Rebelion's answer is a total lie. Even if it were not, what decent woman would ever agree to marry a man who raped her???? This is just more evidence of Islams twisted attitude toward women - when you see women as no more than chattels, then once she's no longer a virgin you might as well let the rapist have her.
The fact is that "honor killings"in Muslim countries do NOT just happen to women who had consensual sex outside marriage - it DOES happen to rape victims. The claim that it doesn't is spread only by apologists for extremist Islam.
EVEN if it were true - and I repeat it still isn't - it would STILL be diabolical barbarism. A woman has every bit as much right as a man to choose to have sex when she chooses, and any "religion" that doesn't recognize that isn't worthy of existence.

I'm with you, but it is an ancient custom that once a woman is "spoiled", she may as well be dead. With the victim dead, why bother with the perp? I think that women have taken a more pro-active role in modern society and, consequently, should take on the retribution for sexual attacks/abuse on women and children by men.
It's a mixed up world. Even here is the US, women blame victims for being victims, saying, "They brought it on themselves through their own behavior".
We do always need to punish the guilty, not blame the victims.

It's their backwards thinking. They think a pretty woman is the cause of making men go wild. That's way they make women ware Vail's. I say let the women scald their faces with hot bolling water, and then see what their men think about them then! To bad they can't control themselves! Their insane from walking around in the sun to long. Yes it's the men that should be shot!!!!

Well what FOX NEWS and CNN tells you and what the Koran says ARE DIFFERENT. In Islam, SHOW ME THE VERSES WHERE IT SAYS "kill and humiliate the raped woman"?
It says, the man who commited the rape MUST MARRY the woman. This way, it protects the woman and prevents her from humiliation. Honor kill happens ONLY if the woman intentionaly have sex and they both refuse to get marry. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN "RAPE", AND "SEX SHE AGREED TO HAVE WITHOUT MARRIAGE"////
idiots.

Remember where those "honor killings" take place. Any society that treats its own people like that would not hesitate to treat "outsiders" even worse. Be afraid, be very afraid.
