Al-Jazeera Special: Video of Palestinian Female Suicide Bombers

View this Al-Jazeera special about Hanadi Jaradat, other female Palestinian suicide bombers, their families and the people who send them to die.

Amjad Al-'Ubeidi, commander of the Islamic Jihad in Jenin:
It is not that complicated. We produce primitive explosives, from which we make an explosives belt, a bag, or something. You can get most of it easily these days. There is nothing special about it. The belt is like this shirt - you wear it and there is a button here. You push the button, and that's it. All she had to do was to push a button. There's nothing to learn. She would wear it... Hanadi, especially, being an educated lawyer, who knows what to do, who speaks English, and gets along by herself - she did not need anyone to take her.

There's more than an ocean of difference between Islamists and the rest of the world - these people are in a world of their own, taken there by clerics and political leaders that represent the very darkest side of human existance.
