Tribal? It's mostly the non-Kufar, doing this. Family honor, and its always against the females. Here's a fix in the west. Families which sanction murders, lose social benefits completely. Family support, medical care. But, its guilt by association! Me: Yeah! But Allah is more important then mere earthly stuff! Yeah! But we'll do it anyway. Its a partial fix, and I bet it will help fighting this practice.
Honor killings are more a matter of tribalism. When giving young women in marriage is the main way of cementing tribal alliances the "honor" of the women becomes of existential importance to the tribe.
