Pictured: The dramatic moment a 15-year-old Iraqi suicide bomber gave herself up
Daily Mail (UK) ^ | August 26, 2008 | Staff

Tears streaming down her face, she is confronted by police - a teenage girl apparently planning to blow herself up in front of an Iraqi school.

The officers handcuffed her to a metal balustrade before moving in with extreme caution to uncover a vest full of explosives hidden under her colourful robe.

The dramatic scenes were captured on a video shot by the police.

-SNIP-

Police in Baqouba, where the girl was caught on Sunday, said she was fitted with the vest by female relatives of her husband, whom she married five months ago.

They also claimed that the girl's father was a suicide bomber, and her mother and one of her sisters were later arrested.

However, U.S. sources said that the girl turned herself in after being hooked up to the explosives against her will.

I saw this last night on Fox. It was also reported that she’d been drugged.

Islam is an evil death cult which turns normal human beings into the servants of Satan.

I really wonder if any have the courage to say “You want a martyr? Here, you wear the vest and blow yourself up first. Then I’ll consider it.”

The story is quite detailed. I excerpted it, mainly because the pictures are quite good on the site.

I don't see that the Daily Mail is on the excerpt list, Mod...would it be OK to pull more detail from there onto the thread?

By the looks of it, she was packing more than just explosives!

You’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel when you have to drug people to do your sadistic bidding.

What a bunch of sick savages.

She's certainly not an anorexic teenager.

The animals that strapped her into that explosive vest should be hunted down and killed.

ping to post #6 picture for your eye and expertise. Any homegrown clues there or is it all government manufactured?

Unfortunately, the picture of her partially disrobed to remove the vest probably marked her for an honor killing.

She must now go into some kind of protection program.

My guess is, they figured that would help hide the explosive belt beneath.

I was thinking the same thing. That, and the pictures will cause outrage in the Muslim World (tm) for their insensitivity, the photographer will need to hide as well. Poor girl, we should bring her over here, I'll bet she cleans up well.

In which she will be much better off, IMO.

“..Islam is the most dangerous foe we face right now.”

Not according to our government — not a day goes by that we are told that the majority of Muslims are peace-loving. How they have arrived at this conclusion has never been explained to the American people. The concept that Islam is a ROP is as insidious as the propaganda of global warming.

We just can’t understand a culture that would permit this and I am afraid it is pure folly to try. We never will. I am afraid that when Iraq is turned back to it’s people, we will see a duplicate of our Vietnam withdrawal. With helicopters being pushed off the deck of aircraft carriers as they try to evacuate pro-USA loyalists 1 step ahead of the same people that were praising democracy the night before

Drugging people to commit murder has always been popular in the Middle East.

The word "Assassin" is derived from "Hashisin" (sp?), killers who were drugged with Hash Hish to kill rivals and other enemies around the time of the Crusades. More info http://www.disinfo.com/archive/pages/dossier/id985/pg1/index.html
