Young Iranian women (left) and men (right) presented themselves
yesterday as volunteers to carry out suicide bombings against
Americans in Iraq and Israelis. More than 200 gathered at the
Behest-e-Zahra cemetery near Tehran and put on white shrouds
symbolizing their willingness to die for their cause.

I'm guessing they have some self-esteem issues.

Hopefully, we can help them achieve their goal of dying before they reach us.

Interesting. We're willing to kill them. Why don't we just go ahead and save them the travel time.

Too bad there wasn't an armed Predator loafing overhead.

So in essence, this group of people have declared war on the U.S.

We should have dropped a cluster bomb on them while they were all in the same spot.

They plan to do the same to us, so why not engage them before before they can engage us?

How can we be sure those aren't all Iranian military dudes? I mean, is there anything in the pix that proves some of them are female? I'm not seeing it. Maybe there are other pix that make it more clear, but not this one.

Okay, who didn't show up. There are some empty seats there. Maybe some people are already on the job? Or maybe they grew a brain.

My, what a target rich environment for a daisy cutter. And, they're already in a cemetery. No hearses required :)

Sounds like a missed opportunity to assist with their willingness.
