Baghdad, 21 March (AKI) - Al-Qaeda has decided to enlist widows to carry out suicide bombings in Iraq, according to a study by the Voices of Iraq news agency.
During the last three months, six suicide attacks were carried out by women. A total 10 women have carried out suicide attacks in Iraq since April 2003 , according to statistics from the United States army.
As recently as Wednesday, a woman blew herself up in volatile Diyala province, killing five people. On Monday, a female suicide bomber blew herself up among a group of civilians in the holy Shia city of Karbala, killing 47 people and wounding 75 others.
Police investigators established that the women were both middle-aged and recently widowed.
The majority of of female suicide bombers come from Anbar and Diyala provinces, the report said.
"Al-Qaeda is active in those two provinces, and military operations that kill this organisation's elements are also active there," the report cited sociologist Fari al-Obedi as saying.
"The majority of female bombers' motivations are getting revenge for a deceased husband or family member, or due to religious extremism," he said.
The women are recruited and trained by men, but are much more effective, because police have not been searching women, the report noted. The fact that many are veiled will make searching them more difficult, it said.
Mohammed Al-Askari, advisor to the Iraqi defence ministry , quoted by the report, attributed the phenomenon of female suicide bombers to "the reduction in al-Qaeda's influence in Iraq." They are used to "shame" men into Jihad, he said.
"Interrogations revealed that most of these women are relatives of al-Qaeda elements," a senior Iraqi military official, Major General Qassim Atta was quoted as saying.
"Preliminary investigations indicate that some women may not know that they will be used as suicide bombers," Atta said.
A religious edict (fatwa) issued by several imams close to al-Qaeda state that women have the same rights as men to wage Jihad.
Is the word 'love' even in the koran?
There really are no depths to which these animals will stoop. Will they have these widow push baby carriages filled with C-4 next?
Equal opportunity- Islamic style!
Well 1) I’m really not surprised and 2) They’re ‘homicide’ bombings, not ‘suicide’ bombings
Answer, Yes!! They all are the enemy!!
Welcome to FR!!
Hey something for my MIL to do oh nevermind
How many female virgins to they get in the afterlife?
“Will they have these widow push baby carriages filled with C-4 next?”
That would be consistant with their ways.
The Devil quoting equality scripture.
"We're succeeding. I don't care what anybody says. I've seen the facts on the ground," the Arizona senator insisted a day after a roadside bomb in Baghdad killed four U.S. soldiers and rockets pounded the U.S.-protected Green Zone there, and a wave of attacks left at least 61 Iraqis dead nationwide."
I mean, They don't call it the "Ass. Press" for nothing.
“How many female virgins to they get in the afterlife?”
They get 72 vienna sausages.
“Will they have these widow push baby carriages filled with C-4 next?”
I taught my family a long time ago to stay away from fat Muslim women wearing Arab garb in congested places — they may go BOOOM!
Nothing has happened so far, but we do not want to depend on good fortune only.

Some people from one of my campus Christian groups and I were talking with a man who did a lot of missionary work with Muslims, and one girl asked him if men got 72 virgins in their afterlives, what the Muslim idea of heaven was like for a woman. He said that it was perpetual virginity... the looks on the faces of every girl in hearing range were absolutely priceless. I wonder how fast Britney Spears would run away from that Muslim boyfriend of hers if she was let in on that little secret?

Makes sense, after all they're widows. And the orphans, well we all know what they're trained to do.
Welcome to the 21st century.
Figures the muslim idea of heaven for a woman is actually a man’s idea of heaven for himself x 72.
