Suicide bomber kills woman in southern Israel town
2008-02-05 05:51:00 By Yehuda Peretz DIMONA, Israel (Reuters) - A Palestinian suicide bomber from the Gaza Strip killed a woman in southern Israel on Monday, the first such attack in the country in a year, but Israeli officials said peace talks would not be derailed. Police said they prevented a second blast in the shopping centre of the town of Dimona by shooting dead an accomplice, also a Gazan, before he could detonate an explosives belt. One of the attackers said in a farewell video recording he wanted to strike against what he called Israel's siege of the Gaza Strip, territory controlled by Hamas Islamists opposed to President Mahmoud Abbas's peace talks with the Jewish state. "It was like a war. People were running like crazy. I saw a piece of a human being right there, next to my leg," witness Rosa Enberg told Israel's Channel Two television. Israel's Dimona nuclear reactor, widely believed to have produced atomic bombs, is located in a heavily guarded compound on the outskirt...

Suicide bomber strikes in southern Israel
2008-02-04 12:39:00 By Yehuda Peretz DIMONA, Israel (Reuters) - A Palestinian carried out the first suicide bombing in Israel in a year on Monday, killing a woman in a desert town where a top-secret nuclear reactor is located. Police said they prevented a second blast in Dimona's shopping centre by shooting dead an accomplice before he could detonate an explosives belt. A source in the Palestinian Fatah faction said the "Army of Palestine" wing of Fatah's al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades launched the attack along with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). Two other militant groups, Hamas and Islamic Jihad, praised the bombing as a blow against "Israeli occupation". Young supporters of Fatah handed out flowers and candy to passing cars in the southern Gaza city of Rafah to celebrate. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas condemned the Dimona bombing but also levelled censure at an earlier military raid by Israel in the occupied West Bank. Police said the suicide bom...

Were Baghdad's Female Suicide Bombers Mentally Retarded?
2008-02-03 01:40:00 by Walter C. Uhler On February 1, 2008, two female suicide bombers killed some 91 people and wounded another 150 at Baghdad pet markets. The two coordinated explosions marked the bloodiest day in the Iraqi capital during the past six months. Coming on the heels of increased U.S. military deaths in Iraq in January, after four months of declines, the bombings raised new doubts about the wild-eyed claims made by President Bush and Republican presidential candidate, John McCain, that the surge is working and the U.S. is winning in Iraq. But, almost immediately, Iraq's chief military spokesman in Baghdad claimed that the female bombers appeared to be mentally retarded. Allegedly, an examination of the severed head of one of the bombers led to the conclusion that she suffered from Downs Syndrome. In addition, some Baghdad locals were reported to have claimed that the bomber was known as "the crazy lady." Such reports, if correct, would lend substance to the a...

Now only if they would all be as intelligent as that, this world might be a better place to be. But as a side note, he did accomplish his goal: To be a suicide bomber.

Suicide Bombing: Just Another Kind of Bombing?
2008-01-17 22:53:00 So I was listening to CBC this morning and the Current was continuing a discussion (it's mail day) about suicide bombing: causes, etc. Some comments I agreed with, some I didn't. But what struck me was how odd it is that we spend so much time analyzing the technique of suicide bombing (remember I do think it is a rational tactic). Why do we treat it so differently than, say, aerial bombing, such as by the US in Iraq or Israel in the Occupied Territories?Well, lets think about this for a moment. (And of course, first I need to make the requisite disclaimer: I do not condone suicide bombing, or civilian-targeting violence on the part of either terrorists or governments.)What is the difference between a bomb that falls from the airplane of a conventional army and a bomb that is meant to explode while still attached to a body? Why does the second attract such complete and vehement denunciation (just watch what kind of comments this post gets) while the first elicits barely a comment?...
