Iraqi Bombers Claim They Were Deceived
Via Lucianne:Are there caves in Iraq?? How could they not know??? Wisam Younis' sole ambition in life, he said Friday, is to kill Americans. So he claimed surprise when he discovered his car bomb had killed eight Iraqis and wounded more than 80 outside a Baghdad restaurant. Younis and brothers Badr and Yassin Shakir are charged with murder and face the death penalty in the May 23 attack. ``We did not know that the attack would target innocent people and we were deceived. We were eluded by enthusiastic ideas and money,'' said Younis, barefooted and with bruised and swollen hands. An insurgent leader promised him $1,500 for the bombing, he said. ``Our doctrine is to wage jihad against the Americans,'' Younis, wearing a stained beige traditional robe, told an Associated Press reporter as police stood over him. ``Driving out the occupiers is the demand of all Iraqis... I wish to die in the battlefield instead of prison....'' Had no problem w/everyone else dying there, what makes you special? Posted by: anonymous2u 2005-05-28 |
