Stunned Belgians are starting to get a clearer picture of the Belgian woman identified as a suicide bomber killed in Iraq last month.
La Derniere Heure newspaper published a photo of the woman it said was the bomber, and interviewed her mother.

converted to Islam after marrying a radical MuslimMarried a Muslim, converted to Islam and blew herself up.
Ah, tradition. Isn't it wonderful?
Easy
But that's just my opinion AND it is hard to tell from a single photograph.
But then, what kind of woman becomes a vile killer out of love for a man and religious confusion?
Yup, I hope she's enjoying the fires in hell.
"I wish they would stop saying she was "killed". It makes it sound like she was a victim."
Ditto!
I wonder how she was morphed from a European sweety into a Muslim fanatic? Apparently she also got passed around among the fanatics a bit: ( from the article , note: "last husband")
Perhaps a little traditional Muslim abuse sent her over the edge?
""She became more Muslim than Muslim," said Mrs Degauque.
"When she first converted, she wore a simple veil. That was not so far from normal, even if it is strange for a Belgian. But with her last husband she wore a chador [Islamic dress covering women from head to toe]."
Why are they even surprised?
....And the French say: "TOAST"!
Hindleg.
Say, that syrup pattern looks liks Texas. Preserve it as a sacred icon.
That pretty much says it all about why she did it. I don't seem to know of any other religions that preach going to heaven is a result of killing innocent people.
I shall call her "Squishy" and she shall be mine and she shall be my "Squishy"
*BOOOMMM!!!*
Bad "Squishy", Bad!!
Ahhhhhh...so It was YOU who paid over $1,500 for Justin TImberlake's uneaten breakfast of French Toast on eBay all those years back. [/sarcasm on]

"1 December 2005: The face of a the girl next door turned suicide bomber
The woman pictured above is Muriel Degauque, from a small town in Belgium,
According to published reports, Muriel was by all standards a fairly typical teenager. USA Today describes her as follows:
She was the typical girl-next-door — pretty daughter of a hospital secretary who grew up on a quiet street in this rust-belt town and finished high school before becoming a bakers' assistant.
In many ways she was the girl next door. According to friends, she liked to go sledding.
As a teenager, she became involved with drugs and alcohol.
But in 2000, she married a Belgian man of Moroccan descent, and plunged into the world of radical Islam.
According to friends, by the time she left Belgian, she dress in full Islamic garb from head to toe, and had adopted the veil.
She left Belgium with her second husband, Aissan, for Syria. From Syria, she and her husband made their way to Iraq.
According to Belgian authories, Degauque had been a member of an Al Qaeda-aligned terror group.
Her husband, Aissan, was killed trying to set up a suicide bombing in Iraq.
Muriel died in a suicide attack on a group of US troops on November 9. The attack failed and all US troops survived.
Muriel is representative of the new face of Al Qaeda.
In fact, authorities arrested another couple poised to leave for Iraq on a suicide mission.
Communiques from Global Islamic Media Front, a self-professed Al Qaeda aligned internet PR firm, have described this new Al Qaeda soldier.
They call him Rakan Bin Williams.
But as we have learned this week, Rakan Bin Williams can be male or female.
The translation of one of the communiques follows:
Rakan Bin Williams is the next Al Qaeda soldier.
You can't watch him, you can't restrict his movements, and you cannot stop him.
He will shake the land under your feet and his hands will be responsible for the fall of your empire, Allah willing
Do you think I am crazy? Who is Rakan Bin Williams?
They are a group of your sons who were born in Europe from two European parents, and were Christians who studied in your schools, and enter your places, and know your psychology, and they go to your churches and celebrate mass on Sunday.
They drank wine, and ate pork, and persecuted the Muslims.
But Al Qaeda brought them in and they embraced Islam and hid their Muslim religion and soaked up the Al Qaeda thought and promised Allah that they will carry the flag of their distance brothers and seek vengence
You can't watch him, you can't restrict his movements, and you cannot stop him.
He will shake the land under your feet and his hands will be responsible for the fall of your empire, Allah willing

They blend into the streets of Europe and they streets of America and they plan and watch and observe.
The use of European born terrorists is not not unexpected.
Last year, a number of new Al Qaeda videos were released on the Arabic language jihadi boards, showing the new face of Al Qaeda.
These new jihadis are Muslim male extremists, but they aren’t from the middle east. The ones in the video are soft spoken, well educated young men from Great Britain. One of them is a medical student.
This is the face of Al Qaeda’s Great White Army.
This video was released with a series of other videos of training camps, which the videos claim are in Bosnia.
Much has been discussed about the ways in which the Islamists have recruited heavily among the disenfranchised populations in prisons, impoverished neighborhoods, and ethnic communities.
But the new face that Al Qaeda often sports is that of an upper middle class, or even wealthy, Causasian.
How do you recognize a terrorist? Good question. If you have the answer, please let us know."

Damn, I thought eBay had better security.
Send Rakan Bin Williams to the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont.
There these sons of Jihad will meet the Sons of Liberty.
You will not know who they are, they are everywhere, omnipresent.
Allah willing, they breath fire from there noses and fart blowtoch bombs, incinerating the robes of the faithful.
They carry fire scepters named after men like Samuel Colt
and no man can stand against them. They spit on the shadows of the radical sons of Islam and force pork into the mouths of the faithful, defiling them before the eyes of Allah, forever.
They are the new face of America and no Rakan Bin Williams or any of their running dog liberal wing nut supporters can stand against them.They are omniscient, free , and undectectable.
Come see us soon Rakan Bin Williams, We are waiting with the patience of the Great Oaks and Maples that seek their roots at the center of the earth and which flourish here in the land of the free, like us forever! We are the new face of America.
