Pakistani women being trained as suicide bombers
2004-05-18
Pakistani women are being trained to become suicide bombers by the widow of a foreign terrorist, reliable sources told Daily Times. Intelligence agencies have submitted reports to the Interior Ministry revealing that a woman Aziza, a citizen of Uzbekistan and widow of Ubaidullah, an active member of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, is reportedly training female suicide bombers at a base in Pakistan’s mountains, sources said. Sources said this is the first time in Pakistan that females were being trained for suicide missions. It has also been stated in the reports that Ubaidullah was killed in January 2004 during an operation in South Waziristan conducted by the armed forces of Pakistan. The reports reveal that in late March 2004, Aziza told her relatives that she intended to avenge her husband’s death by committing terrorist acts in Pakistan, sources further said. Terrorism might occur in the big cites of the country and important personalities associated with the government could be targeted by trained female terrorists, sources added.

#6  Admittedly it's a very small sample, but the Pakistanis I know are too Americanized to help out the jihadis. And yes, they're Muslim, though I'd guess from the "reformed" branch.

But I'm sure we have plenty of jihadi enablers here.

#5  Pakistan may be one of the most potentially alarming nations on Earth

Pakistan ("the land of the pure") was founded explicitly to be an Islamic nation. It has lived up to that goal, so, yes, it is the most alarming nation on Earth.

#4  If Pakistani-Americans or Canadians start blowing themselves up, who will then remain to send money back to Pakiwakiland? The fund raising machine must stay alive! At all costs.

#3  Good point. If Muslim 'social clubs, non-profit organizations, schools, mosques or summer camps are indoctrinating those attending to become suicide bombers in America or Canada that alone is a threat to national security.

It's incredible that the federal government issues non-profit status (501C-3) to the majority of these anti-western front groups in the first place.

Anyone teaching others to become 'homicide' bombers and kill Americans or Canadian citizens must be arrested and the willing 'pupils' investigated and or locked up if deemed as a threat.

The enemy wants to bring their insanity to our doorsteps. The infiltrated enemy within is laughing at us. while organizing, plotting domestically to one day, bring about the same chaos & death Iraq finds itself jihad right under our noses and getting away with it TAX FREE!

It's bad enough radical Islamic OPEC oil barons have many nations over a barrel and promote various kinds of Muslim revolution on a grand scale in many of the countries they export to. Iran and the House of Saud are two of the most notorious. It's a whole other issue when Islamists abuse Canadian and America liberal non-profit laws & regulations to network hundreds of strategically positioned tax free 'groups' in pre-planed concentrations. They have been getting away with this for over 25 years to engage in harming the host nations at later date.

The enemy is not at the gates, he was allowed walk right through and lives among us.

#2  As long as they limit themselves to Pakistan alone, is fine with me. But what about the hundreds of thousands of Pakistanis already in the US and Canada?

#1  These people are criminally insane and must be treated accordingly. Those in the West which still feel negotiations will function with individuals thoroughly brainwashed into committing suicide for a false cause, are dreaming.

Pakistan may be one of the most potentially alarming nations on Earth, and as a relativly new, regional nuclear power, the enemy has set goals in store for toppling the current government in Islamabad.

The only option we have is preventing the jihadists from getting their claws on Pakistan's WMD.
