Cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Have you ever heard this expression before? "Cutting off your nose to spite your face". This saying is very old. According to Wikipedia, its been around for almost a thousand years and is an expression used to describe a needlessly self-destructive over-reaction to a problem.  A problem far less severe than the solution chosen to fix it.

That was the first thing that came to my mind when I read a story on Atlas Shrugs about the ultimate act of mindless feminism in the Gaza strip. Muslim women training to become suicide bombers. I went to the original news source Israel National News to read it first hand. It is beyond reason to try and understand how people can be filled with so much hate that they are willing to kill themselves in order to hurt someone else and do it in the name of their religion.

Pamela Geller, who writes Atlas Shrugs, expresses similar shock in her intro to this news story when she says: 

You knew this was coming. Frankly, given the choices a woman has in Islam, homicide bomber might very well be the most attractive choice. Clitorectomies, honor killing, forced marriage, 97-year-old husbands or homicide bomber .....decisions, decisions.

I wonder if their American feminist sistuhs will be joining them. Lord knows the Jew-hatred on the left and the silence of the feminazis in the face of Islamic gender apartheid puts them directly on the path. Gloria Steinem, call your office.

I don't know of any religion in the modern world that encourages or condones the killing of innocent people in the name of any god. In all the religions I've heard of, murder is the gravest of sins and punishable by banishment to hell, so someone has either grossly misunderstood what Islam is about or there is a most compelling reason here why we should investigate the motivating factors behind this. From what I have read in the Qur'an this holy book itself is the source for all of the hate.

‘Feminism’ in Gaza: Women Train as Suicide Bombers

by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu

“Terrorist feminists” in Hamas-controlled Gaza are training to be suicide bombers and to shoot machine guns to kill Israelis. A CNN crew traveled blindfolded to a secret location to film the women.

Female terrorists are not a new phenomenon in Judea, Samaria and Gaza, but it is rare that a foreign news agency is allowed to interview them and watch them training.

With sounds of Allahu Akbar [Allah is great] in the background, reporter Paula Hancocks interviewed the women terrorists in the back garden of an undisclosed location. “All [are] from the Salah ad-Din Brigades -- one of several militant groups in Gaza -- all veiled and armed. Only their eyes are uncovered,” she reported.

The women said they see nothing unusual in fighting alongside men because women also serve in the “Zionist” army. One woman wore gold rings on one hand while holding a hand grenade in the other.

The terrorists were interviewed while sitting at a table loaded with rifles, rocket-propelled grenades and explosives. Hancocks said that the scene was “carefully choreographed for our camera and the message is clear.”

"I am trained and ready to be a suicide bomber against Israeli soldiers,” one potential “martyr” said. Expressing the fundamentalist Islam jihad philosophy that drives Hamas, she added, "On the path of the Prophet they used to fight and struggle, so there is no trouble with that. They used to transport the wounded, but now we have ambulances for that."

Although Hancocks said that the women – and their male counterparts – are “reviled as terrorists” by many Western media outlets, CNN and most other foreign media, as well as the Israeli Ha’artez newspaper and web site, refer to them as “militants” when reporting attacks or Israeli counterterrorist operations against them.

The ages of the women range from the 20s to the 50s. “Four years ago, a 64-year-old grandmother blew herself up near Israeli soldiers in Gaza, wounding two,” Hancocks told viewers “She was the oldest Palestinian female suicide bomber.

“And at least one of these women in a Gaza backyard wants to follow in her deadly footsteps.”

The so-called Religion of Peace that encourages suicide bombers is more about violence than anything but "peace", especially when you count the number of times the words KILL, SLAY and DEATH appears in the Qur'an. According to the searchable database of the University of Southern California Center for Muslim-Jewish Engagement  here are the results, along with the verses quoted in Sahih Bukhari (complete collection), Sahih Muslim (complete collection), Sunan Abu-Dawud (partial collection) and Malik's Muwatta (complete collection):

This is a very impressive list of repetitive terms for violence to be used in a holy book. Other phrases regarding the cutting off of heads, hands, fingers and feet are also repeated throughout the writings. Please remember that throughout time despotic tyrants have always called for "peace" such as the famous cold-war saying. "Peace to a Communist means the absence of resistance to Communism." How much different is the phrase "the absence of resistance" to Islam meaning submission?
