You don't see the leaders of Al Qaeda doing the bombing. They use people who are young,depressed and then tell them they are doing this for Allah. Yes I wish the U.S. could get out of Iraq (I have family serving there now) but innocent killing is not the way to remove the U.S. I found it amazing that 2 of the folks who commented were Muslims living in the U.S. If this is the way you feel toward America, then you need to leave our country, but I don't think you will do that. Because you are too busy enjoying the fruits or our nation.&lt;br&gt;The U.S. needs to work toward getting out and by all means probably should not have ever went into Iraq, but these killings that are going on now are not because of the U.S. invasion. The 'women' in these cases are being used by 'evil' men(and women) to promote violence directed against their own countrymen.</description></item><item><title>Iraqi female suicide bombers - no longer shocking</title><link>http://worldblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/13/1539959.aspx#1542365</link><pubDate>Tue, 14 Oct 2008 13:07:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1542365</guid><dc:creator>Jason, Milwaukee, WI</dc:creator><description>It's funny when people can't realize that there is a difference between religious leaders taking advantage of women at the lowest point in their lives or the mentally handicapped to further their cause and heroic freedom fighters fighting for the liberation of their country.</description></item><item><title>Iraqi female suicide bombers - no longer shocking</title><link>http://worldblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/13/1539959.aspx#1542402</link><pubDate>Tue, 14 Oct 2008 13:25:34 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1542402</guid><dc:creator>R.

Suicide bombing itself is a self-defeating strategy, especially when it avoids military targets. Its even worse when the terrorists use people who cannot make their own decisions. Although I am Catholic, I have studied enough of Islamic history to know that those who insist on suicide bombings are either fools or blasphemers. The Prophet Muhammed did not hide in a cave spouting hatred towards Mecca, He fought alongside his followers in Medina and led them to victory in the name of Allah (who, in my opinion, is the one and true God, the one who led Abraham to Canaan, Moses to free his people, and sent his only son Jesus to free all humanity from sin.)&lt;br&gt;On a more secular note, Iraqi nationals need to understand that the sooner the violence goes down, the sooner we Americans will leave. Fighting us will only keep us around longer. If Osama bin Laden truly wants to help his people, he needs to surrender himself and face trial. </description></item><item><title>Iraqi female suicide bombers - no longer shocking</title><link>http://worldblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/13/1539959.aspx#1542757</link><pubDate>Tue, 14 Oct 2008 14:32:39 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1542757</guid><dc:creator>Harriet Chrysler New York, NY</dc:creator><description>Wait a minute. &amp;nbsp;The suicide bombers aren't killing invading coalition armies, they're killing THEIR OWN PEOPLE, women and children as well as young and old men. &amp;nbsp;This American woman certainly wouldn't do such a thing if we were invaded by Iraquis or any other force. &amp;nbsp;What are you thinking?</description></item><item><title>Iraqi female suicide bombers - no longer shocking</title><link>http://worldblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/13/1539959.aspx#1542763</link><pubDate>Tue, 14 Oct 2008 14:34:10 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1542763</guid><dc:creator>Pacheck Huntington Beach, Ca.</dc:creator><description>Suprise, suprise. When all you had is gone and your country is occupied by invaders who are there just because one man feels it is the right thing to do. And when you are in worse condition than the deposed dictator left you in, guess what? Strapping a bomb to your worthless body is actually a blessing. Its not like young tender girls can expect to enjoy a normal life. Normal life is hunger, filth, stupidity, abuse, exploitation.</description></item></channel></rss>
