When she spoke of becoming a suicide bomber, Umm Anas's voice was strong and steady: "This is a gift from God.
"We were created to become martyrs for God," she continued, her eyes burning behind the full face veil.
"All the Palestinian people were created to fight in God's name. If we just throw stones at the Jews they get scared. Imagine what happens when body parts fly at them."

And people don't think religion is bad?
Education, education, education!
"If we just throw stones at the Jews they get scared."
And when Jews get scared, they bring in the tanks.
"Imagine what happens when body parts fly at them."
You already know what happens: they bring in the gunships.
What exactly is the reward that female Islamic suicide bombers get? I know the whole deal with the many virgins in heaven thing with the guys, but what about the women? Do they get virgin men? Or is it merely the satisfaction of bringing "honor" to the family, which is nothing more than a pathetic excuse for murder?
This is just too sad for words.
Read Eden's comment for it speaketh the truth.
John said: "Only religion could cause people to do such fucked up things."
True, but religion's raw material is people who otherwise have no hope for the future.
cui bono said: "natural selection ?"
The only trouble with that theory is that, even at a 1:1 exchange rate, Israel will run out of jews well before the Palestinians run out of muslims.
Too bad about Umm Anas, she has fantastic eyes.

Yeah, they roll into your neighborhood with tanks and rockets and kill a couple of hundred Palestinians and destroy their homes and businesses. How many times does this have to happen before the Palestinians realize they can't win by force? Insanity is defined as doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Only it's not 1:1. Israel kicked Egypt's ass in six days. The only thing keeping them from simply stomping the Palestinians like an ant-hill is world opinion.
The native Palestinians dream of controling the only thing they have left.... Their own deaths.
And yes the only hope the Palestinians have is the use of force to free their country from the invaders who infect it.
But desperation tactics are NOT the way to go.

Yeah, they'd kind of lose all the sympathy points accumulated for the Holocaust...

They don't "get scared"; they get out their Uzis. Opinions like Umm Anas's, in my mind, fully justify any and all actions on the part of the Jews to defend themselves. They've gone through the whole holocaust thing before and I don't think they're going to let it happen again. Good for them. Keep your eyes peeled and your powder dry, you hardcore kikes--the 21st century Nazis are banging on the door.
Opinions like Beeblebrox's, in my mind, fully justify any and all actions on the part of Palestinians to keep on fighting except suicide bombing.
Palestinians are people that are born in a land with very little control over their lives. One side is asshole HAMAS with bottle-rockets and hate, other side is Israel with discrimination against Palestinians and smart bombs.
They have far less chances of a good life than 90% of the planet. What do you expect them to do? You White First World people will never understand the pain in Middle East.
HAMAS rocketbomba Israelites, the West screams. Israel bombs Palestinian refugee camps, and the West sleeps. If any God existed, you guys would really be worried about the shit you've allowed to happen in Mideast. As for pro-Palestine westerners, they are exceptions.
Confused?
