Those Suicide Bombers are so poor...

The young 18-year-old female suicide terrorist, Zeinab Ali Isa Abu-Salem, who murdered two Israelis yesterday, was none other than a children's TV show hostess on a local station in Shechem.

The young 18-year-old female suicide terrorist, Zeinab Ali Isa Abu-Salem, who murdered two Israelis yesterday and wounded some 30 others, was none other than a children's TV show hostess on a local station in Shechem. Ofra resident Debbie Segal, who noticed the terrorist approaching the bus stop moments before she blew herself up, described her as "extraordinarily beautiful." She comes from a very wealthy Arab family in Shechem, which owns the TV station where she worked.

Palestinian Media Watch has thoroughly documented numerous children's TV programs that indoctrinate Arab children to seek "heroic death for Allah." On January 15, 2002, Arafat himself, during a PA televised message to children, told them, "Is it not the greatest message to the world, when a child dies for Allah?"

Abu-Salem raises the number of female suicide terrorists to eight. Security sources say that she, like most of them, was young, single, and intelligent. Another 40 female terrorists have been arrested since the Oslo War began on Rosh Hashana, 2000, some of whom were on their way to commit suicide attacks.

Eyewitnesses to yesterday's attack said that the terrorist, clad in a veil, was stopped at the Border Guard post at the entrance to the crowded bus-and-ride stop, and argued with one of the policeman who wanted to check her. When the second officer approached them, Abu-Salem detonated the explosives that she held in a bag in her hand. IMRA notes that this occurred just a day after US President Bush told the UN General Assembly that Israel must "end the daily humiliation of the Palestinian people" - a reference to the checkpoints.

The two Border Guard policemen who were killed in yesterday's suicide bombing in northern Jerusalem were buried today. They are Momoya Tahio, 20, from Rehovot, who immigrated from Ethiopia a number of years ago, and Menashe Komemi, 19, from Moshav Aminadav in the Jerusalem area.

Komemi's cousin, Raanan Komemi, was killed a year ago in a battle with terrorists in central Gaza. Raanan's father - the uncle of the policeman killed yesterday - is one of the founding members of an organization called the Three Fathers, which demands that the government allow the army to fight the anti-terror war without restraint and that the Supreme Court not prevent the army from razing structures used by terrorists to perpetrate attacks.

A few hours after the attack, Israeli forces demolished the homes of the terrorist and of her dispatcher. The two lived in the Shechem area in northern Shomron. In addition, IDF forces arrested over 15 terrorists in various Yesha areas last night.

Suicide bombers aren't necessarily poor?

From time to time, some people say to the effect of

"Only the poor opressed arabs turn crazy, its all the west's fault for not giving them billions to build a perfect fundie socalist shithole"

And I just couldn't help but be jarred by the idea of a kidde show host
blowing herself up.

Can you imagine a Palestinian Sesamie Street?

From there on the hilarity would only write itself..

Actually, the consesus on this board seems to be that they blow themselves up because they've been heavily indoctrinated since childhood into a hateful and oppressive religion that gives human life lower priority than propogating the faith and killing the infadels.

*cough*

correction - it's the west's fault for mucking around and meddling in the internal affair's of ME countries, decades of support for Israel and having troops stations across the holy lands

it has nothing to do with not being given billions of dollars.

Come on Shep, you know the Palestinians are wonderful people who want nothing but the best for their children. Here's a lovely little story:

Jihadprints in the Sand

One night a shahid had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with Allah.

Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. During each scene he saw two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonging to him and the other to Allah. However, during the last, most desperate scene, he saw there was only one set of footprints. This troubled him and he turned to Allah and said,

"Allah! You swore that once I decided to follow you, you would never leave me. Why then, in my darkest hour, was there only one set of footprints in the sand?"

Allah smiled at him. "O glorious shahid, I love you and would never leave you. During your time of trial and suffering, when you saw only one set of footprints, it was because the bomb you detonated on that bus blew your fucking feet off. It was then that I carried you. In Glad bags."

Allah Akbar.

it´s about arab nations being poor shitholes in general. if the arab nations were wealthy then terrorism would be less likely.
just because some rich bitch demonstrates her morbid solidarity with terrorists doesn´t change this.
she wants to change the shitholiness of her country not of herself.
that was a perverted act of altruism actually.

If that's the case, why aren't there any international terrorist groups from 3rd world shitholes in Africa?

They kill each other all the time, usually over tribal bullshit. They don't have that big of a beef with the international community, nor the funds to carry out large attacks across the oceans.

The thing about the Islamic terrorist is that they are poor and oppressed enough to breed incredible fundamentalism, yet they have enough resources to take their hatred overseas. The poor are more willing to blow themselves up, while the rich are willing to sit around and fund them. There are many exceptions of course, but that's the way I see it happening.

There been the contention that the idea that "only the poor are desperate enough to immolate themselves" is not quite right. If one takes a look at the history of agitators, many of them were actually from the middle class, suggesting that maybe it is those who have something to lose who will agitate for social revolution, as opposed to the popular only those who have nothing to lose will agitate for social revolution.
