Peres Theory Fails: Palestinian Bombing For Sex - Not Occupation and Poverty

[IMRA: Labor MK Shimon Peres lectured this week that suicide bombers are motivated by the occupation and poverty. the latest bombing attempt was motivated by a 14 year old Palestinians desire to have sex.]

"Blowing myself up is the only chance I've got to have sex with 72 virgins in the Garden of Eden," a 14-and-a-half-year-old Palestinian boy told his Israeli investigators after being caught wearing an 8kg explosives belt.

Husam Muhammad Bilal Abdu from Masahiya neighborhood in Nablus was captured Wednesday afternoon by IDF troops near the Hawara roadblock near Nablus, the same place an 11-year-old boy was caught with a bomb last week.

"They told me that this was the only way, and they promised that my mother would get one hundred shekels if I did this," Husam told his captors.

The Fatah Tanzim claimed responsibility for sending the would-be bomber, Channel One reported Wednesday night.

The boy aroused suspicions when he reached the Hawara roadblock. Soldiers from the Paratroopers 202 Brigade aimed their weapons at him, and he panicked.

Seeing that the boy was "unusually swollen" around the chest area, he was checked by soldiers at the roadblock, who ordered him to lift his t-shirt, where they discovered a large gray suicide bomb belt on his chest with a detonation device attached to it. Soldiers immediately jumped behind a concrete barrier and trained their weapons on the boy again.

The area was shut down and sappers were brought in to neutralize the explosives belt. A remote- controlled robot was sent out with a pair of scissors to the would-be suicide bomber, who was instructed by sappers to begin cutting the belt off of his chest.

He cut off part of it and struggled with the rest. "I don't how to get this off," he said.

After he dropped the vest, soldiers ordered him to take off his undershirt and jeans, to ensure he had no other weapons on him.

The belt contained 8kg of explosives, and was detonated in a controlled explosion after it was taken off the Palestinian child.

Lt. Tamir Milrad, an officer at the checkpoint said, "We saw that he had something under his shirt."

"He told us he didn't want to die. He didn't want to blow up," Milrad added.

Channel Two news reported that the boy received 100 NIS for carrying the belt and exploding near Israeli targets.

Following the incident, IDF erected a blockade around Nablus. Channel 2 reported that security services have warnings of a wave of terror attempts emanating from Nablus, a hotbed of Fatah Tanzim activity.

The boy's brother, Hussam Abdo, said he was mentally slow.

"He doesn't know anything, and he has intelligence of a 12 year old," his brother, Hosni, said.

The incident was the latest in a series of foiled terrorist attacks involving young Palestinians.

"No matter how many times Israel learns of the use of children for suicide bombings, it is shocking on each occasion," said Dore Gold, an adviser to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon.

"Israelis do not understand how Palestinians are willing to sacrifice their own children in order to kill ours."

Last week, Fatah Tanzim terrorists in Nablus sent an 11-year-old boy to smuggle a bomb through an IDF roadblock on Monday, and tried to detonate the bomb when soldiers stopped him.

The men gave the boy a bag containing a seven-to-10 kilogram bomb stuffed with bolts. They promised him a large sum of money if he would carry it through the roadblock and hand it to a woman waiting on the other side.

Since 2001, more than 40 other minors who were involved in planning suicide bombings have been arrested by security forces. Since May 2001, 22 shootings and bombings were perpetrated by minors.

Well, when they look like this, I suppose I can almost understand the need for desperate measures...

Shimon Peres' mega-stupidity has been known to Israelis for over a decade. The most obvious rejoinders to his views are first, 98 percent of Palestinians are not controlled or occupied by Israel and second, there are no malnourished or poor homocide bombers. In short, the Palis are not mass murdering Jews cause they feel oppressed or cause they have nothing to lose but cause they feel like murdering Jews, period. Oslo, brought to Israel by Peres and his pet poodle Yossi Beilin and their sandbox crew has been the most falsified and discredited theory in Israel's history. The most laughable thing about the decade of Oslo was the notion that one group of terrorists would actually wipe another group of terrorists. And we all know how well THAT thesis actually worked in practice. Really, the man has no sense of shame and its just as well he prattles off nonsense in his dotage.

Ah yes. That great whorehouse in the sky.

That Allah, what a guy.

Sure beats that mean old God of Abraham. He makes silly little rules like "thou shalt not commit adultery".

Indeed, the entire palestinian "refugee crisis" is a fraud. They are just another front for terrorists who plot the violent expansion of islamic rule.

The Pallies must lose their children so they be reared in homes to teach the children Jewish and Christian values.

The level of criminal pathology through the death cult Arab culture is rampant. Strip the Pallies of their children and separate men from women to keep them from breeding more child bomb mules.

It is either that or kill them all, down to toddlers since Arafat's PLO/PA schooling long ago included kinderbombers.
