Al Qaeda's Latest Outrage

In case anyone has forgotten just how despicable Osama bin Laden and his followers are, we offer this brief news flash.

The BBC has reported that Al Qaeda strapped explosive devices on two developmentally disabled women in Iraq. Here is a link to the story and a brief excerpt.

"The operation was carried out by two booby-trapped mentally disabled women."

The al-Qaeda terrorists and criminals are proud of this method," Brig Qassem Ata al-Moussawi, Iraqi security forces spokesman told the BBC, "The bombs were detonated remotely."

"Forensic and bomb squad experts as well as the people and traders of al-Shorja area of the carpet market have confirmed that the woman who was blown-up there today was often in the area and was "mentally disabled"… In the New Baghdad area the shop owners and customers of the pet market confirmed that the woman who was blown-up there was mentally disabled as well."

The US ambassador to Iraq, Ryan Crocker, said al-Qaeda had found a "different, deadly" technique.
