How low could a person stoop? A woman, who has been identified as Samira Jassam, 51, was arrested by the Iraqi police for a heinous crime. In a confession that was recorded on tape, the woman has explained how she conned 80 other women into killing themselves by organizing their rape and telling them suicide bombing was the only way to escape dishonor.
This woman, who called herself 'Um al-Mumenin', which also means Mother of the Believers, brainwashed women, after their rape, and prepared them for martyrdom operations. She handed them out the explosives, and took them to their objectives.
Not only was she indirectly killing them by persuasion, but the means by which she foxed them into their rape and eventually their death, is absolutely remorseless.
One of the reasons why suicide bombers are mainly females is that they are normally let go unchecked at checkpoints because of their gender and its easier for them to hide the bombs under the burkas.
The most baffling thing about this is the guiltless way the woman explained her 'act' in the video. She almost seems happy and calm that people got to know about this, and its almost as if she wants to reach out to people with her message.
