21/06/05 'My dream was to be a martyr'

By Lara Sukhtian, Shika Prison A BADLY burned Palestinian woman was alternately defiant and tearful last night after Israeli soldiers caught her trying to enter Israel with 22 pounds of explosives hidden on her body.

The woman, who suffered serious burns on her hands, feet and neck in a kitchen explosion five months ago, had been granted permission to cross into Israel from the Gaza Strip for medical treatment when she raised the suspicion of soldiers at the Erez checkpoint.

Video released by the military showed 21-year-old Wafa al-Biss taking off articles of clothing on the orders of soldiers searching for explosives, and rubbing her...

"My dream was to be a martyr," she said, adding that she was recruited by the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, a violent offshoot of Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement. "I believe in death."

That quote neatly wraps up the philosophy of the entire Palestinian movement and their supporters, doesn't it?

Does that mean she would get 72 male virgins? Or still the 72 female virgins and she would convert to lesbianism? Isn't homosexuality forbidden in Islam?

She needs a fate worse than death. Put some boxer shorts on her head.

What does a female martyr get in paradise? A civilzed male?

Everytime I see the word "movement" I become more convinced that a civilized form of governement in the middle east and Iraq is going to be virtually impossible to achieve. Right now, Iraq has freedom and they can't even agree on how to accept it.

"My dream was to be a martyr," she said, adding that she was recruited by the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, a violent offshoot of Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement. "I believe in death." Sitting calmly across from an Israeli TV interviewer, the young woman with large brown eyes and curly dark hair pulled back in a ponytail said her decision had nothing to do with her disfigurement, which might make her less desirable as a bride. "Don't think that because of how I look I wanted to carry out an attack," said al-Biss. "Since I was a little girl I wanted to carry out an attack."

However, her story grew more contradictory as the interview progressed. After more than an hour, she began to lose her composure and changed her story. In a separate interview with foreign reporters, she asserted that she had undergone treatment at a Gaza hospital for her burns, where someone apparently planted the explosives on her body without her knowledge.

Yes, she'll boast of Jihad and martyrdom for the Israeli TV interview, but suddenly turns victim for the foreign (anti-Jewish) media to whip up some anti-Israeli propaganda. Grant her wish, make her a martyr.

Sounds like something the Nazis or Communists would do, or maybe Pol Pot. Israel should apologize!

I think she gets freedom from a miserable life here on earth. For some, that seems to be enough of a reward.

In Paradise, she gets to wear halter tops and short shorts, she gets to go shopping without a male relative, she gets to drive her own car, she isn't slaughtered for speaking to a Christian, she isn't chattel property, and best of all, she doesn't have to bed with a Muslim male.
