Footage of suicide bombing attempt. New DVD explores the history and mystery of suicide bombing. Their devastating and deadly actions punctuate the world news almost nightly, yet they remain faceless figures amidst the violence and turmoil that engulf the Middle East. And, whether it’s the C4-laden martyrs of Hezbollah or the car bombing insurgents of Iraq, what could possibly compel a suicide bomber to voluntarily take their own lives, along with those of hundreds of innocent victims? There is perhaps no one better equipped to investigate this terrifying practice than Robert Baer, a decorated, former Middle East CIA Agent and the man George Clooney’s character was based on in the Academy Award®-winning film, Syriana.
In the groundbreaking and acclaimed documentary, THE CULT OF THE suicide BOMBER, Baer returns to his former center of operations to trace the origins of the modern day bomber from the Iran-Iraq war to the Middle Eastern streets of today.
THE CULT OF THE SUICIDE BOMBER reveals the secret history of the suicide bomber, from the child martyrs of the Iran-Iraq war, the truck bombers in southern Lebanon, to the young men and women who now strap explosives to their bodies and calmly blow themselves up in crowded streets and markets across the Middle East.
Baer also reveals the fascinating story of the world’s first suicide bomber, 13-year-old Hossein Fahmideh — who was martyred in the Iran-Iraq war and is now a hero in Iran.

I remember reading …
I remember reading a comic strip that had a muslim extremist speaking to a crowd of muslims about suicide bombing. Then a guy yelled out, “If martyrdom is so cool, why don’t you do it?” And the caption under the comic strip said, This is why there are no questions at martyrdom conferences. It was pretty funny to me.

I was studying this and it is not muslims it is hamas muslims they use jihad in order to attack although it’s not really a matter of religion but a matter of who the land belongs to. But Jihad just means that you can attack in self defense and thats why hamas thinks it’s ok

It’s actually the same, they’re just using JIHAD as a reason to fulfill their own will to do harm.

Israel started suicide bombing Britain when the UK were policing Jerusalem. They wanted their own independance (I Believe) so they strapped bombs to themselves, so they can’t moan too much that the same tactic is used against them.
But muslim suicide bombers were doing a similar thing a 1,000 years ago, a muslim lord convinced his followers that they would get entrance to paradise if they martyred themselves. CRAZY!!

Maybe if the Israelis stopped building on their land, stopped forcing curfews on them and played fair they wouldn’t resort to this. They don’t have high tech weapons. If the roles were reversed the Israelis would be doing the same. The out gunned losing force always resorts to suicide bombers. Japan / China / Vietnam etc.
