Israel-Palestine
Paleos scraping the bottom of the barrel to find boomers
2004-05-10
Israeli security forces thwarted a suicide bombing planned for Tel Aviv when they arrested a Palestinian hermaphrodite armed with a 15-kilogram bomb in the West Bank, Palestinian sources said.
Honest to God, we don't make this stuff up...
Amal Juma’a, 32, is a hermpahrodite who goes by the name Ahmed, Palestinian Authority sources told Army Radio. The report said the terror attack was planned for Monday. Israel Defense Forces troops arrested Juma’a in the West Bank city of Nablus and transferred her to the Shin Bet security service for questioning. Security forces also arrested the suspect’s 15-year-old brother and a neighbor of the same age, who were also being questioned Monday, Army Radio said.
When ’dire revenge’ meets a prepared, modern, well organized state it does dissapoint.

#17  You know Akhnaten, 1st monotheistic pharoh of Egypt was supposedly a Hermy. He fathered only girls.

#16  Most hermpahrodites result from not having the right number of X & Y chromosomes. Do a search on Turner's syndrome and Kleinfilgers' (sp) syndrome. Its suprisingly common.

#13  You lot are just plain mean. As a famous airport philosopher said recently, "It's not nice to make fun of people with issues."

#11  I hate to disappoint you Mecutio, but it is from a legit Isralei newspaper (Haaretz).

There really was a suicide bomber with both sets of plumbing.

My question is; if they also arrested his-her "brother" was this "brother" likewise endowed?

#10  Items from Scrappleface should be clearly marked as such. Someone might think this was real.

#9  What's astounding to me is that the mullahs allowed someone "so hideously cursed by allah" to live to his/her first birthday, much his/her 32nd.

#6  Cynic: I've said it before... if the boomers were growing up in the US, they'd be spending their adolescences and early 20's reading Sylvia Plath and contemplating suicide. That's the personality type that shines through in all of the profiles I keep reading. You never see the big husky guys with the fake bomb belts in the demonstrations off themselves, do you?

I hope that there's a special place in hell for the suicide bomber recruiters.

#5  I think that what we see here, contrary to current wisdom, is that a lot of the suicide bombers are not driven by idealism but by those forces that social outcasts of Palestinian society are subjected to.
