It is their strategy because women are not suspected doing odd tasks like that.

I'm not at all surprised. Read "Beacuse They Hate" by Brigitte Gabriel. It's a firsthand account of living under Islamic terrorism in Lebanon.

It is the ONLY assured way to Paradise for a Muslim. To die killing the infidels. To a Sunni a Shiite is an infidel and visa versa. I guess these women want to go to Paradise. Also they are losing the men so the women need to take over.

This makes sense. They are not stupid people, they are just crazy. They are planning new ways to attack all the time.

In Palestine they teach the young kids how to hate Israelis and throw rocks at them and then they complain when the Israelis try to put a stop to it. By the time the kids are old enough to think they are already in too deep. I heard someone say that peace with Israel will only happen when Palestinian mothers love their children more than they hate Israel.

Too late. Hate and martyrdom are being taught early and there have been some instances.

"Riyashi's husband had discovered that she was having an affair with a senior Hamas commander. Among conservative Palestinians, as in other parts of the Islamic world, an adulterous woman is often punished with death. Riyashi was given a second option: she could become a martyr. In a video statement released hours before her death, Riyashi, garbed in a militaristic uniform and holding a semiautomatic rifle, sounds tough. "I have always wished to knock at the door of heaven carrying skulls belonging to the sons of Zion," she says. But the pained expression on her chubby, homely face conveys considerably more ambivalence about the idea of annihilating herself to kill Israelis and restore her family's "honor.""

"In late March, a macabre music video appeared on a television show for Palestinian children. "Duha," 4, as pale as a porcelain doll, is sitting on a bed, watching her mom dress before leaving home. "Mommy, what are you carrying in your arms instead of me?" the girl sings. The next day, Duha gets the answer from the evening news. It turns out her mother was carrying explosives and had blown herself up, killing four Israelis."
Man, and I thought rap videos glorifying the "gangsta" lifestyle was bad for kids. Islamo-fascists take it to an entirely lower level.

"Terrorist recruiters often tell male martyrs that a bevy of 72 virgins awaits them in heaven. But some women suicide bombers believe that in paradise they will become queens, while others are told by recruiters that no matter how old or grotesque they may be in this life, they will become the fairest of the 72 virgins that await each jihad warrior."

I don't know, I'm not feeling the spiritual side of this religion. Sex, vanity,murder and revenge that's about it.

"Witnessing women traditionally associated with domestic duties taking part in frontline militancy operations can have a shaming effect on the men, "impelling more of them to take part", she says."

The country has been invaded, bombed and destroyed. Gone are houses, homes, schools, offices and markets. There are thousands of men who have lost their families, women who have lost their husbands, children who have lost their parents.
There is no drinking water, electricity and daily food supplies are scare or non existent. People are scared to come out for fear of being killed by sectarian violence or by US military.
It is irrelevant to argue how was it under Sadam. It was their country. There are lot of other African countries with more heinous conditions and genocide.
So, what have these people to live and look far except misery?

The US military is the problem? In Moscow, in Turkey, in Palestine?
Quit making excuses for these people and trying to blame it on our soldiers.

When I began reading your post I thought you were talking about the Christians living under Islamic terrorism in Lebanon, since a big part of their terrorist population was from PLO members - who incidentially had an advocate WHILE ON THE INTERNATIONAL TERRORIST LIST in Obama's close friend Rashid Khalidi.

I hope the jerk who made the comment above remembers:
. Abu Ghraib
. Haditha
. the raping of a 14 year old girl, shooting her, her sister, and their parents.
Yes, US military is the problem. They are under control of the new NAZI in WH. He invaded, destroyed and occupied another country. The last leader to do that was HITLER.
Now, shut the hell up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let's see...Paul Pot in Cambodia. Idi Amin, North Korea, North Vietnam, Serbia, whatever African mayhem, oh yeah...Saddam into Kuwait. It's a long list. Atrocities in war do happen, they weren't ordered by the US military. Individuals committed those crimes. You are an absolute idiot.

The torture in Abu Grahib and Guantanamo may or may not have been actually ordered. We don't know the truth. But at minimum it was condoned. It would be like an NFL coach telling his team that they needed to get bigger and stronger and leaving a bag with syringes and vials of steroids on the table when he left the room. The military said it wanted information and they did not care how it was obtained. The soldiers heard that the CIA was using certain methods and because they wanted to present results too they copied the techniques. The top brass looked the other way to maintain "plausable deniability".

Really? So Mao with Tibet, Stalin with Eastern Europe, and Saddam with Kuwait all happened before WWII? I need to burn my history books.

It is amusing to read the posts by die hard war mongers complaining about everything with Iraq. I wonder if they read newspapers, watch TV except may be FOX.
You are the only one still occupying Iraq by force. All other partners in crime have left, Australia being lost. The new Australian PM commented while withdrawing their forces from Iraq and said "it is a shame our country was part of this illegal invasion and occupation. it is never late to right a wrong".
So, instead of complaining about female suicide bombers, WHY NOT YOU AND YOUR MILITARY JUST QUIT AND GET OUT?

No, I am not but just trying to make sense to senseless people here. Talk peace and not war & destruction.
After 5 years of occupation, if soldiers have to go out hiding in their tanks and humvees with air cover overhead, you should know that you are not welcome and wanted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is also why this war went so bad. W and Co assumed that the Iraqi people wanted to be just like us and would embrace democracy and thank us. They had no idea about things like tribal alligences, ethnic rivalries, sharia law, and dislike of a foreign occupiers. This was a hornets nest before we entered and it did not help that W made almost every mistake possible after kicking the nest. Probably the biggest was disbanding the army and removing all Baath party members from government. If we would have accepted the surrendering army units, stripped them of the heavy weapons and told them now you will be police and establish order and will still have a job and check. Also the Baath party is like the communist party in China, and formerly USSR. All top people like scientists or the electric company managers were required to be members. That does not mean they agreed with the party though. We fired everyone who knew how to make the country work.

I am anti war but not anti society.
Just leave Iraq and let them manage their country. Don't worry about their school books. Your children here will not be asked to read it. Instead of complaining about how those children are brought up, why not leave their country and worry about yours.
Iraqis did not and will not come here and mess with your lives.

"Iraqis did not and will not come here and mess with your lives."
They, and all Muslims, will if they gain enough power. Islam is like Stalinism, bent on the enslavement of everyone else. The difference of course is that Lenin, Stalin, et al were somewhat rational. The Radical Muslims are not. They will kill you if they have the power, regardless of where you live. World Domination is their ultimate goal.

I would have to include W and the neocons in that category. They want to reshape the country so it has a hereditary ruling class, their assistants who will be the middle managers and skilled professionals, a large warrior class, and the sweatshop class. They think inheritance and money from ownership should be taxed far less than actual workers. The only way for the sweatshop class to improve their lot will be to join the warrior class which will be used both to attack any nation that does not agree to deals that favor the owner class. More importantly the warrior class will be used to keep the sweatshop class under control. If workers try to organize they will meet the wrong end of a gun and the leaders will be "disappeared". They want to turn us into a banana republic.

When I first saw the headline I missed the "suicide" part and thought the story was about Obama's friend Bernardine Dohrn. Oh well.
