According to the old saying, there are none so blind as those who will not see. And according to the new saying, there are none so nuts as those who will blow up their own children.
In this case, the left is blind. Because they refuse to see the insanity that guides our enemies.
Here’s how Jonathan Kay describes it in Canada’s National Post:
Having spent this morning catching up on my weekend reading, I came across this Page 4 article from Friday’s New York Times. Here’s the lead paragraph: “BAGHDAD — At least 80 people died and 120 others were injured Thursday in three bombings, one by a female suicide bomber in Baghdad who, Iraqi officials said, held a young child’s hand as she set off her explosives among a group of women and children receiving emergency food aid.”
We think this is one of the moderate terrorists President Obama wants to negotiate with. had she been one of the extremists she would have blown up her whole family.
Good luck with that strategy, President Obama.

I fear that there may be a possibility this was not her child she held. If it was or it wasn't this woman and people like her are vile. I cannot understand their mentality. They are a true danger and they have to be stopped.
This woman not only killed herself and this child, she KILLED other people who wanted to live and wanted to survive and were looking for aid. That is terrorism and she gets no pity from me.
The only pity I have for anyone is for the innocent. The child, regardless of whose child it was, and the innocent people that this woman killed. She is a murderer, no more, no less. Just like any other terrorist.
I started reading articles on your site but then I noticed a presumptious, arrogant low blow to obama after every article... I know the right does little more than try to make people look bad. But come on. Everyone who is "blind" knows FOX news is a f--kin joke. Now you are following suit. Anyone who believes the right's sheep herding banter should learn how to find real news sources. I still remember the one about Obama being antichrist lol and the oil spill was economic terrorists and even that it was obama's fault. YOU believe that don't you. Congratulations.
What if I told you that her husband and the child's father was already dead at the time of the bombing and that the husband was unintentionally killed by occupying forces in a raid. Thus, with her husband dead, these woman have no where turn. With no means of substance, food, or cash, she likely felt it was time for her and her child to rejoin her husband in paradise. There everything will be provided for. Nevertheless, it was time to avenge her husband's death. Maybe, we should renegotiate our strategy in Iraq....
yeah, that's right. After all, if everybody else is stupid, you can be as heartless and stupid as you want to be, and some idiot will apologize for you, somehow find a way to blame either the US or Bush, and talk about how we ought to renegotiate our strategy.
Question #1, which you gotta get past before any other negotiations can work: "How do you negotiate with people whose only wish is for you to die, and they don't care who they take with them when they try to kill you?"
Yeah, that's not really a smart plan on her part, is it?
She: "Iqbal! I'm here with little Jihaddha to live with you in Para--what the hell?"
He: "Burkalla! What are you doing here?!"
She: "Never mind that! Who are all these women?!"
He: "Well...er...y'know...remember how I told you that the reward for dying during Jihad was all the ice cream you could eat?"
She: "...69...70...71...WHY do you have 72 nubile virgins running around here?!"
He: "Look...sit down and I'll explain..."
Does the child get 72 virgins to play with, too? Inquiring minds want to know.
"We think this is one of the moderate terrorists President Obama wants to negotiate with."
A news source that interjects these kinds of opinions - I'm more qorried about the people who actually agree with this. This site is a joke.
Kevin, you've been reported to the U.N. for violation of the new anti-blasphemy law. Nice knowing you.
I'm going out on a limb here. Was the woman a muslim?
