#2 Near as I can tell there is no specific established afterlife bonus for female suicide bombers (what they call matyrs).

However, I suspect the buzz among females is that female matyrs either become rulers of afterlife harems, or first among 72-virgin cohorts or that their matyrdom absolves a number of sins (mainly sexual in nature) within their family or clan.

#3 I wonder how they persuaded her to do this. Was it to escape a honor killing, perhaps?

#5 I believe the theory is the splodeydope can vouch for a couple dozen others so they can get into paradise.

#6 IIRC, in addition to his reward, a shahid can vouch for 70 members of his family; of course, since at the End of time, each and every muslim destinated to hell will in fact be replaced by a christian or a jew, and go to paradise instead, this really doesn't matter.

#7 apparently affiliated with al-Quds Brigades.

So she was a moderate suicide bomber.

#9 I always wondered what kind of crap was fed to female splodydopes--the 72 virgins thing doesn't fly. I guess stupidity knows no bounds.

#10 Some of the female bombers find themselves in honor predicaments- "Since we found you with that man, we must now slit your throat for the honor of your family. Or you can die gloriously for Allan with this handy suicide belt."

Others are just really pious and really, really mean.

#11 Earlier Monday IDF forces attacked a target in Jabalya, killing 17-year-old Mahmoud Ashrafi and wounding seven other Palestinians, mostly teenagers.

Wow! Israel is really cleaning out the Palestinians' "senior" terrorist staff.

#12 I saw some footage a while back of a couple of suiciders who were standing next to a chain link fence when they popped, and strained themselves through the fence.

Had to be seen to be believed.
