Another Pilgrimage = Another Female Homicide Bomber

***UPDATE***

It's been located! Here is the post I mentioned about the creepy “Terrorists’ Mother of Death”.

It is dated almost exactly a year ago: Februrary 4th 2009. Yet the story seems so much longer in the past than that; were I guessing, I’d have put it somewhere in Bush’s time. I noted back then:

Mother of BelieversHere’s the strange part of the story as you read the various accounts currently in the MSM: some of the stories discuss her recruitment of the women yet omit the fact that rape was used as the method of indoctrination. Without that essential piece of information the fatal submission of that many women seems odd. You begin to wonder if maybe Momma just had a magnetic personality capable of inducing ordinary women to strap on bomb belts and go to glory.

Other reports will give you information on the rape, but hedge it with all sorts of weasel words. Reading, say, The Times Online, you find the part about “recruitment” via rape. But the story is fenced in with qualifiers:

“Samira Ahmed Jassim, 51, confessed to dispatching 28 of the women to carry out attacks…She was captured at an undisclosed location a fortnight ago.”[the original has the links but after a year they’ve probably stale-dated]
At least the MSM is consistent in its craveness.

Hat tip for his detective work in finding the link: The Okie Lurker


We’ve reported on this phenomenon before, as have many other Counterjihad sites.

Now comes word that yet another female homicide bomber has busted loose in Iraq. There are dozens of versions of this story to choose from, mostly based on AP or AFP sources. This one is from AP via Yahoo:

A female suicide bomber detonated her explosives inside a way station for Shiite pilgrims Monday, killing 54 people and rattling security officials who are struggling against a possible rise in violence before key elections next month.

The attack was the third major strike by suspected Sunni insurgents in a week and left Baghdad’s top security official acknowledging that extremists are adopting new methods to outwit bomb-detection squads such as stashing explosives deep inside the engines and frames of vehicles.

There isn’t any way to stop this kind of Lone Ranger (Lone Rangeress?) attack. Assassination is impossible to eliminate for a “religion” based on carnage. Thus, it is poor judgment on the part of the authorities to tell pilgrims they’re “stepping up security”. Big woo. Besides, as long as women are permitted to cover up so completely, they’re ideal for this kind of job. That goes for men who dress up in those tents to cover the same murderous plans.

The bomber set off the blast - described as a huge fireball - as she lined up with other women to be searched by female security guards at a checkpoint just inside a rest tent serving sherbet and tea.

…The blast was so powerful it blew some people out of their slippers and shoes, which were scattered across the ground, he said. Many of the wounded were loaded into cars instead of waiting for ambulances.

A police official said 54 people, including 18 women and 12 children, were killed and 117 were wounded. A hospital official confirmed the casualties. Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media.
They’re “not allowed to talk” but they always do…
- - - - - - - - -
Aside from the poor judgment of Iraqi officials, who won’t say the sensible thing - i.e., “if you're hell-bent (so to speak) on going on this pilgrimage, you have a good chance of dying at the hands of our enemies. Even worse, you may be setting your children up to get killed or maimed in a most horrific way. Please stay home.”

But no one says that so, predictably, a dozen children die while dozens more are taken to the hospital. The media is unlikely to follow up in any detail with this story. We won’t find out what happens to the 117 wounded, though we may get a higher death toll in a day or two as people expire from their wounds.

I can understand the spiritual impulse that is the source of pilgrimages. Our oldest mythic tales are, at bottom, pilgrimage stories. But I can’t understand mothers taking their children on a journey through a dangerous, war-torn country. Are they convinced the bombs will never explode near them or are they simply insane? When the news of this explosion got out, did any pilgrims decide to go home?

Islam is a religion whose proponents have claimed to prefer death to life. The political and doctrinal fissures which run through the Sunni versus the Shi’ite versions of this belief system means they’ll be killing one another as long as there are adherents to either branch left. It is a fight of all against all, except for junctures of convenience, when they can come together to kill the infidels. Even if they were able to get rid of us all, they’d be stuck with one another and with Death over Life.

Meanwhile, Iraq has elections coming up. Another episode of Death and Mayhem kabuki theatre:

A similar warning about new tactics came last week from the chief U.S. military commander in Iraq, Gen. Raymond Odierno, after a two-day wave of suicide car bombers struck three hotels in Baghdad and the city’s main crime lab, killing at least 63 people.

U.S. and Iraqi officials are deeply concerned that insurgents such as al-Qaida in Iraq could step up violence before March 7 parliamentary elections, which are seen as a critical step in reconciliation between the majority Shiites and the Sunnis who lost control with the toppling of Saddam Hussein.

Reconciliation?? What are those folks smoking? Lions don’t lie down with lambs except in metaphors.

Read the old entry, about how these women bombers are trained for their work. In a shame-based culture, that’s not difficult at all.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the post I did sometime back on the al Qaeda woman whose job it was to recruit women for suicide. After gaining a particular woman’s confidence, she’d turn her over to a group of men who would rape her repeatedly until the victim believed that the only way out of her intense shame was to get suited up for glory and take as many others as possible along with her.

The woman recruiter was eventually captured by the Iraqis and was put on trial.

Sick.

.

The woman's name is Samira Ahmed Jassim.

In speaking with the AP — a week after her Jan. 21 [2009] arrest — Jassim repeated statements she had allegedly made to interrogators that insurgents organized rapes of women and that she would then try to coax the victims to become suicide bombers.

She said she was "able to persuade women to become suicide bombers ... broken women, especially those who were raped."


Much like the women who perform FGM (Female Genital Mutilation), upon members of their own sex, SAMIRA AHMED JASSIM IS LIVING PROOF THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR SOME PEOPLE TO BE KILLED SLOWLY ENOUGH.

Burkha bombers

Hell-bent in a bell-tent.

Can we be sure it was a woman? Crimes and escapes have been committed by men wearing burkhas in England.

Link fixed: Samira Ahmed Jassim

It is a perfect measure of Islam's depravity that one of the most inhumane living horrors could be purposefully and repeatedly inflicted upon women specifically so that they might go on to commit one of the most profoundly lethal horrors upon humanity.

This is just one of an abundant number of examples that, each one alone, justifies the extinction of Islam.

I think the only question with these fanatics is when and where and not should I blow myself and others up. It is not the individual, it is the religion that is the problem and the sooner people realize this the sooner we can began to find a solution. I think we know what that is.

Thanks, Zenster.

I think the long-term solution is to find and elect leaders who are willing to say the words "Jihadi terrorist" and to use the full strength of our resources against them.

Bush chickened out; Obama was never even close. Our Defense Department is a joke, but the younger guys have probably not sold their souls to the Muslim Brotherhood.

If you are implying a violent solution on home soil, please not here. That is definitely beyond the bounds.

If you weren't implying that, then I apologize for reading somethign that wasn't there.

People get annoyed when I delete comments that suggest "solutions" like "shipping them all back".

One thing is certain: there is NOT a simple solution. It's been a slow slide to where we are and climbing up hill is always harder.

However, I think it can be done.

The Terrorists are merely practicing Equal Opportunity Employment. I say we should give all our feminists to them to use as suicide bombers. What could a feminist like more than blowing up men?

filthykafir:

It was with regret that I deleted your comment. Any resolution of this thorny problem that speaks of "eradication" of people cannot stand here.

I think I understand the path you have reluctantly taken. It may be that I will find myself in a similar spot; I have learned never to say 'never'.

I would like to see our troops recalled from lands where shariah law is in force. We have no business there. And that was a change reluctantly chosen. However, I think we had to go through the process to realilze that the two systems aren't compatible and never will be.

If Iran starts blowing things up -- a little Shi'ite revenge on its Sunni co-religionists - we can wait to see if we even need to intervene anymore.

Time to protect our own interests. Our govt will not use the strategies or tactics necessary to win in this war so removal is the best choice.

Too bad that those who really understood what needed to be done were kept out of the loop. In this matter, Bush was no better than Obama.

filthykafir said...

Dymphna: And I've never had a post removed in a more kindly or considerate way. Thank you for your thoughtfulness,

Does the ban on extermination mean I can never comment to a post on "pest control," Orkin, varmints in the basement? Help, help! I'm up to my arse in cockroaches. (Hee, hee.)

Now these rocket scientists has a new method at hand considering blowing kuffar up, namely by inserting the explosives surgically inside the bodies of the to-be-suicide bombers. This concept brings an entirely new meaning to the concept of human bombs.

P.S.

Please delete the spam.

You ask why these women put themselves and their children in danger in a war zone.
Might I suggest that it is probably because life has to go on. Much like it did in blitzed London during WW2; much as it did when the IRA was carrying out atrocities in London in the 1990s - I was undertaking freelance consultancy in London at the time. Scared I might have been but life had to go on.
Frighteningly, had my contracts continued for just another couple of years, I would have been ON the very tube train which was blown up at Aldgate on 7/7. It had been my usual train. Life has to go on.

Interesting the filthykafir was probably relating, and Dymphna almost did, that had we not removed Saddam then the current Iraqi atrocities wouldn't be occurring, and the Christians wouldn't be being persecuted either. Iran would have attacked. They daren't at the moment because we are still there. We have no business there. We have upset a natural, if barbarous balance.

On the other hand we SHOULD be in Sudan and Somalia and Nigeria to prevent the current genocides.

For anyone interested have a look at
http://www.channel4.com/programmes/dispatches/episode-guide/series-50/episode-1
which examines insurgency in the North of Afghanistan.
watch the episode if you can and you will see that the might of the west appears totally incapable of dealing with this incompetent bunch of Afghans who appear able to wander around at will and fully armed.

I've noticed that in discussions of these kinds both pro- and anti- mass deportation tend to talk about "shipping them back", "loading them onto ships" etc.

Yet most Muslim immigrants did not arrive by ship but rather by plane. If there were mass deportations it would probably be necessary to use jumbo jets, as mass deportation by sea would be awfully time-consuming.

So why do people always think of ships first? In my opinion this is because contemporary war/political issues are unconsciously tied in our minds to WWII and other events of the past that are still within living memory.
