Are we supposed to be moved, inspired, or what? The article reads like a commentary on the life of Joan of Arc. I suppose all those male suicide bombers don't have relatives.
Seriously, I understand that the (supposed) uniqueness of this situation will inevitably lead to unusual scrutiny by journalists. However, I find the total absence of commentary by women's rights groups and pundits downright embarassing. I think that for all of those women writing articles equating this sort of butchery with "manhood", a serious mea culpa is in order. (The most famous of these articles actually said, "Women gentle the human impulse...") I would personally rather read an in-depth article on the life of the 81-year-old man she slaughtered, and the reaction of HIS family to the attack. Now THAT's a human angle.

If the article is written by the same author, it would probably be how the 81-year-old provoked the peace-loving woman with chestnut curls into detonating the 22 pound explosive, killing them both.
Also, I don't know if anybody realized this, but more was written about the female suicide bomber's life than Derrick Miller's! It's aggrivating to say the least.

In her wedding portrait, a pale Idris had long, chestnut curls of hair and a slight smile. After eight years, she and her husband divorced when it became clear she could not have children, relatives said.
From whom else would an Islamic woman receive a divorce if not her husband.
... it became clear she could not have children ...
I wonder how many other women in the world go nuts when they are cajoled, seduced, or badggered into careers that they didn't really want.
Then after they are trained to be aggressive achievers and have devoted most of their childbearing years working too hard and for too many hours at becoming successful but don't quite make it (the majority of workers, by definition, land somewhere in the middle) then desperately try to find someone, who fits there underdeveloped ideas of suitable father and have children with before it's too late?
It's not like they can just choose a younger woman now is it.
Now if they told young girls the truth in school, then allowed them to make an intelligent decision based on their biology, there would be some who would postpone childbearing until later in life, a decision with well known inherent risks, and some who would choose the other TABOO route.
Have them young with a much older man, and when the children start to mature, use their accumulated wealth to get her into the working world - the kids are grown, my turn to work.
The man would be around 55 so he could take early retirement and stay home with the older children when they need a father.
But in modern day society, 13 year old girls are off limits to older men.
Why did we decide to do this to women?
Are young adolescents immature because of their biology, or are they immature because we make them that way.
I am sure there is plenty of scientific, clinically sound, medically tested data with indisputable proof that young adolescent women when educated to become a mother, just can't hack it as a mother.
Right? a whole bunch of proof? Right?

The Washington Times article is disturbing proof that if women "take up arms" in anything, no matter how horrendous or evil, it is given an almost compassionate tone. The article starts out by stating women are joining militant groups in record numbers, then efficently states soon after that the Koran says it's allowed! As though the fact that the woman was empowered to perform this tragedy is more important than the life of the innocent 81-year-old man killed in the blast!
They couldn't even have the decency to give the elderly man's name, or his background, except that he was an Israeli pensioner. The whole agenda of the article is to make the female terrorist out to be the victim (notice they mention she was hit by rubber bullets on a few occasions). Just look at the title of the boston.com article: "Palestinian woman bomber was a paramedic who had been injured in clashes".
It's the classic gender feminist tactic: empathy through victimization and male-bashing. Thank God that some of us are awake enough to realize it!

If she hadn't wasted the old guy, I'd say she'd done us all a favor: that's a positive, right?
In no way do I condone killing retirees. The old guy probably carried a lunch bucket for decades, dragging his butt off to work every morning for years, to feed his family, and hope for a little rest in his old age. Nice retirement eh?
Now, if we could just convince a few feminists in this country that 5 lbs of C-4, properly applied, does wonders for the complexion.
(lemme know if you need help with the detonator wiring ladies; happy to oblige..)
sigh... pay no attention, it's been a rough week.
