Suicide Boomers in Iraq Follow Paleo Model
2004-02-03
From Middle East Newsline...
Al Qaida and related insurgency groups have adopted Palestinian tactics in strikes against U.S. and allied targets. Iraqi security sources said Sunni insurgents and Al Qaida operatives have been advised by Palestinian insurgents from the ruling Fatah movement and Hamas on methods to launch suicide operations against the U.S. and allied military presence in Iraq. The sources said the methods include the choice of targets, use of explosive belts and the infiltration of operatives.
Another reason to wipe Fatah and Hamas off the map. Things will be better for everyone else with a desire to live a fulfilling, peaceful, and meaningful life.
The Palestinian model was said to have been employed in the twin suicide strikes against Kurdish targets in Irbil on Sunday. At least 65 people were killed and another 250 were injured in the bombings of Kurdish political parties in the northern Iraqi city.
We have to bring the war to the terrorists, like we did with Al Q.
"The use of suicide bombers is new to Iraq but common in Palestine," a security source said. "In Iraq, attacks meant to result in massive casualties were usually done by car bombs."
Get them at the source. A defensive action will keep costing us casualties.

#3  I realized that the connection was obvious when I posted it. The point of the article posting is that we need to make a cordinated effort to root out and destroy terrorist organizations, be they Hamas, Fatah, Al-Aqsa, or Hizb'allah. The idea of "let Israel deal with Hamas," for example eventually creates problems for us all. Terrorists that are put on the defensive would never think of having a conference in Tehran. They need to stay divided or dead by keeping them on the defensive.

#2  I made this observation a few days ago on Rantburg, but as RC says, its obvious and I'm sure other people have reached the same conclusion. I wonder what the Kurds and Iraqis think.

#1  This is about as surprising as the sun setting in the west; Saddam had cultivated Palestinian terrorist groups, and had lots of their retirees living in Baghdad.
