Female Suicide Bomber Kills 16 In Baquba
How much you wanna bet she was an unwilling participant?
At least 23 people were killed in Iraq on Sunday, including 16 by a woman suicide bomber who blew herself up in the central city of Baquba, security officials said.
The bomber detonated her explosive vest beside a police patrol near the gate of the Diyala provincial governor’s headquarters and a courthouse, a security official said.
Doctor Ahmed Fuad from Baquba hospital said 16 bodies had been received by the hospital’s mortuary.
Among those killed were eight policemen, two women and a child, he told AFP.
An AFP correspondent on the scene said several police vehicles were set alight by the explosion, and nearby buildings were also damaged by the blast.
Baquba and the surrounding province of Diyala have seen a series of suicide bombings by women over the past year.
The province, a stronghold of Al-Qaeda, remains one of the most dangerous regions in Iraq despite levels of violence nationwide hitting a four-year low.
Iraqi and US forces have been engaged in a sustained offensive against Al-Qaeda in the province.

Should say “a previous stronghold of Al-Qaeda.” I could link to 20 stories on this site of the people in Baquba fighting off AQI. Dumbass AP!
June 22nd, 2008 at 6:01 pmThe families of suicide bombers receive big bucks from Islamic extremists after the carnage. Yeah, it’s the only time under Sharia law that Islam is an Equal Opportunity Employer for men and women. Hey, if you were a woman and you weren’t allowed to hold a job, receive higher education, drive a car, or purchase your own groceries (which many aren’t), and were physically and sexually abused on a regular basis, maybe you’d want to go out with a big bang, too.
Bad joke. Our hearts go out to all the innocent people, men, women, and children, who have been injured or killed because of brainwashed idealogues with
June 23rd, 2008 at 12:17 amIf someone’s hatred of Bush is based on the lack of WMDs in Iraq, they can relax. The Jerusalem Post recently confirmed that Saddam Hussein transported WMDs to Syria before the war.

If people refuse to read the Jerusalem Post because they’re anti-Semitic, then refer them to the New York Sun, January 26, 2006: “Iraq’s WMD Secreted in Syria, Sada Says.” Sada was the number two official in Saddam Hussein’s air force.
If they won’t research the New York Sun, then tell them to read a book: “Because They Hate,” by Brigitte Gabriel. She was born and raised in Lebanon and became an anchor woman. She writes, “General Georges Sada moved weapons of mass destruction into Syria before the war by loading the weapons into civilian aircraft in which the passenger seats were removed.”
June 23rd, 2008 at 1:40 amEven her own false religion offers no guarantees to her in the next life; while in this one she is considered property to be used and abused as a man sees fit. Some thoughts from Muslim jurisprudence on the subject of women and their destination in the next life:
From Hadith:
Bukhari (2:28) - Women comprise the majority of Hell’s occupants. This is important because the only women in heaven ever mentioned by Muhammad are the virgins who serve the sexual desires of men. (A weak Hadith, Kanz al-`ummal, 22:10, even suggests that 99% of women go to Hell).
Narrated Ibn ‘Abbas:
The Prophet said: “I was shown the Hell-fire and that the majority of its dwellers were women who were ungrateful.” It was asked, “Do they disbelieve in Allah?” (or are they ungrateful to Allah?) He replied, “They are ungrateful to their husbands and are ungrateful for the favors and the good (charitable deeds) done to them. If you have always been good (benevolent) to one of them and then she sees something in you (not of her liking), she will say, ‘I have never received any good from you.”
“Among the inmates of Heaven women will be the minority” (Sahih Muslim 36: 6600)
Even your own religion and the ulema hates you. Now the whole universe hates you.
Stupid fool. Did you really think you would achieve heavenly bliss through murder and suicide? Only Jesus Christ offers freedom and equality for women, both in this life and the next one.
Too late. You think the desert was hot…you ain’t seen nothing yet; and your ordeal has only just begun…
Fool….
