It was not clear under which circumstances Rishawi gave her confession. (snip) International human rights groups say Jordanian police extract confessions from detainees under duress, but the woman spoke calmly.

We're supposed to feel sorry for her ?

"My husband executed the attack. I tried to detonate and it failed. People started running and I ran with them."

Why did you run? You were supposed to blow yourself up and die too, you coward!

The muzzie author of this Reuters article neglected to report that the bomb was loaded with ball bearings to maximize death.

I hope they did not denigrate her or humiliate her by calling her mean names.

Under the rules the Crats and the McCain want to imposeon us, it would probably be a violation to call a terrorist a "jerk" or a bad guy" or a "dirtbag." Because it is denigrating humiliating or whatever the exact troublesome word was.

[Semper Paratus]

Must have used the (Gasp) "Comfy Chair" on her.

[Wuli]

Yes of course we are. Her brother died trying to help the Jordanian freedom fighter, Al Zarqarwi, who fights for his freedom (to terrorize) in Iraq.

"There was a wedding in the hotel. There were women and children," [said] the woman. . . . "My husband executed the attack. I tried to detonate."

I hope the Jordanian government doesn't go soft on this would-be murderer.

[OpusatFR]

I wonder if they will round up her family, the families of the bombers and kill them all, children included?

The Arabs don't operate under the same strictures we do.

[Sir Gawain]

Would a woman martyr get 72 men virgins?

[Pondman88]

Torture the bitch.

[Frank_2001]

I'm sure it was said while getting the Shiite beaten out of her, which is something naughty Americans must never do to terrorists/s

[sgtbono2002]

In another Post I just read the woman was blown up whats going on?

[fish hawk]

If they did "profiling" I guess they have to turn her loose.

[Polybius]

"We are speeding up passing an anti-terror law soon to indict anyone who supports terror either through advocacy and incitement either by word or action," he told Reuters.

So, when are they going to start rounding up Reuters journalists?

[garyhope]

At the risk of being morbid, when you blow yourself up with that much explosives, etc., and I know this sounds like a stupid question, but how do you die and how quickly? Do you feel anything or is it so quick that you don't even realize it? Is there a micro second of pain before you lose consciousness?

What do these people think they are accomplishing?

[jslade]

Someone should ask her how she feels about hubby now boinkin' the 72 virgins.

[TASMANIANRED]

They ought to take her and her bomb and give her her wish in an open stretch of sand with pigs near to finish off her remains.

[M. Espinola]

This Islamic terrorist will murder no more.

OK. somebody explain this story to me as it is unclear.

Is this an Al-Qaeda produced video (in which case it's an attempt to hype a new threat) or something from the Jordanian police (which would raise the question: WHY IS SHE STILL WEARING THE BOMB-BELT?)

[Burr5]

Maybe it's a show for Jordanian officials to hook her back up, but the story doesn't say she's been arrested, is in custody, or anything at all informative.
