THE HEAD SAYS IT ALL...ARAFAT DOESN'T WANT PEACE! (Very graphic)

MY GOD! That is a head they are looking at. What is with the Palestinians? They don’t want peace…they want death. That should be Arafat’s head!

[Catspaw]

Don't know if his mother is proud but the family is now $30,000 richer. $10,000 from Arafat and $20,000 from Saddam Hussein.

And that's not all. The Saudis kick in some, the Red Crescent (part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent) kick in a monthly stipend of $150 a month until the youngest child in the house reaches the age of majority, etc. etc. etc.

Oh, don't forget the American Red Cross pays dues to the International Red Cross and Red Crescent while the IRC denies admission to Magen David Amon, the Israeli version of the Red Cross (which means if you donate to the ARC, your money eventually ends up in the pocket of a terrorist's family). That's one reason why the ARC fired Dr. Bernadette Healy, the former head of the ARC. She withheld dues to the IRC because they refused to admit MDA.

I should have posted a warning from the start. It seems as if that has become a larger part of the discussion than the inherent evil of the suicide bombing.

Upon reflection, I think that the "graphic" nature of the photo is not in the severed head itself. We have seen much worse in movies. Rather, it is the non-graphical realization of the viewer that this is for real...it's not pretend and that there is a evil eminating from it.

Suicide bombing has another compelling economic logic, notes Bruce Bueno de Mesquita, Hoover Institution senior fellow and NYU professor. The bombers have a financial incentive to martyr themselves. They are young men with no economic prospects, no education, no vocation, no opportunity. Suicide bombers guarantee their families payoffs from the Palestinian Authority and from Saddam Hussein. "There is a rational expectation on the part of suicide bombers that they are providing for the future welfare for their families," says Bueno de Mesquita. (It also doesn't hurt that they think they are going to paradise.)

So what you're saying is that they're losers and "suicide bomber" is a career choice?

[RoughDobermann]

No, you may have been correct it not having a warning at all. Everyone should be startled by this picture. These are our enemies, like it or not. My apologies to you.

[cactmh]

Good question. I wonder if the INS has checked up on him?

"Does anyone know how long the head would have lived after the attack? How long it would have remained conscious?"

Zip, zero, nada. Imagine getting hit in the head with a sledge hammer. Then imagine 100 times worse.

"They never seem to think of the pain it could cause, say, this man's mother or daughter to run across the picture of his head on the internet. Even if this head happens to have belonged to the suicide bomber, my point still stands in general."

No it doesn't. If every mother and father of a suicide bomber had to look at the horror that their child had caused then they might not be so many willing to give their children to the jihad.

The photos of what becomes of dumb bombs should be plastered all over where Palistinians can see them. Might give them pause. Its worth a shot anyway.

If that is the head of the bomber, it'd make a hell of a toilet target in an Israeli Army latrine.

Invite his relatives to watch him in a buzkashi game.

Instead of head shots, bladder shots work wonders on the lower lumbar and those other rather important bits. IDF sharpshooters must practice their art to chill the Pali celebrations of murder. Taking out the trash is hard work.

If his ass had survived the explosion intact some thoughtful Israeli's could have shoved his head through his ass...post mortem.

[Dialup Llama]

The head got taken off Drudge. Guess he was taking too much heat for it. But not before the whole internet world saw it.

[Dialup Llama]

If this was a picture of a Jewish guy, he'd be holding a book or something. Just what is it with these people?

[FReepaholic]

>>...There's a war on. American troops are in contact,right now...<<

Absolutley right! What these idiots don't understand is that our troops are fighting FOR US THIS TIME!!!!

Not some "peacekeeping" mission in some hellhole. If they don't fight for us and STOP these terrorists, we will see MANY more US civilians die.

And that's not all. The Saudis kick in some, the Red Crescent (part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent) kick in a monthly stipend of $150 a month until the youngest child in the house reaches the age of majority, etc. etc. etc.

...and, thus, carry on the family tradition of losing one's head in public like that.

[NYC GOP Chick]

I think it's time to head over to ins.gov and see if there's an email to which we can send that link...
