I don't know why some here want to disassociate themselves with these acts: it happens pretty much in every part of the Muslim world... I mean, even in pretty liberal countries like Lebanon:

In Lebanon, one of the most westernised countries of the region, an average of one woman per month is killed by a close male relative who says she has soiled the honour of the family by committing adultery or engaging in pre-marital sexual relations. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/1328238.stm

And I'm sure that thanks to Google I could find the same for Somalia.
It's not by hiding it that you'll fight it. Quite the opposite.
