Fox reporter said they might have had Down Syndrome. Cannot be confirmed, though.
These terrorists are so sick, there are no words to describe these animals.

Yep, this article says the women may have had down sydrome.

“The chief Iraqi military spokesman in Baghdad, Brig. Gen. Qassim al-Moussawi, claimed the female bombers had Down syndrome and that the explosives were detonated by remote control, indicating they may not having been willing attackers in what could be a new method by suspected Sunni insurgents to subvert stepped up security measures.”

These people are savages. It’s one thing to volunteer yourself, but quite another to send someone unknowingly off to their death. Sick people.

Al Qaeda is getting desperation.

Sure seems that way, huh? Seems like they're running low on volunteers. Damn the bad luck.

But I thought that this was the religion of peace! They seek peace! They love their children and don’t put bomb belts around their waists. They love their women and don’t force them to kill themselves and other people. They treat mentally retarded people with kindness and love, since this is the religion of peace, and don’t force or trick them to kill themselves and other people.

They are innocent victims as well, the most innocent of all. It’s sickening.

Contrast this horror with this statement from Pope Benedict XVI, reported today at zenit.org:

VATICAN CITY, FEB. 1, 2008 (Zenit.org).- Benedict's general prayer intention for February will focus on the well-being of the mentally handicapped. The Apostleship of Prayer announced the general intention chosen by the Pope: "That the mentally handicapped may not be marginalized, but respected and lovingly helped to live in a way worthy of their physical and social condition."

You make a good point. It’s likely, as Down Syndrome persons, these women had no idea what they were getting themselves into and were just going to look at the animals at the pet market.
