palestinian grandmother of 41 completes [unsuccessful] suicide attack

A Palestinian grandmother, 64, blew herself up in a suicide attack aimed at Israeli troops in Palestine yesterday.

Three Israeli soldiers sustained injuries in the incident targeting Israeli troops near Jabalya area in North Gaza. Hamas claimed responsibility.

In a video released by Hamas, the woman read out a statement saying that she wanted to dedicate her death to Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails and to Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh of Hamas. Ennacar, the grandmother, wore an M-16 assault rifle slung over her neck. “I offer myself as a sacrifice to God and to the homeland” she said. [source: palestinian grandmother of 41 commits suicide.

biggest tragedy? grandma didn’t kill herself at a younger age, prior to giving birth to the parents of 41 future terrorists.

    There is a stark contrast between Christianity that teaches “Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friend” verses this grandmother who was taught that God will reward her for blowing herself up and taking some infidels with her.

    Go Christianity!

  3. The disturbing part is that this is an old woman! How does Israel conduct themselves in such a way as not to draw scrutiny and criticism when grandmothers are trying to blow themselves up near Israeli soldiers?

  4. good question, ryan. one question that is decided (if israel chose to respond): how the news media would react
