Is there any other way to describe the bottom dwelling sacks of human waste who would send
mentally handicapped men and women into a market as unwitting homicide bombers?
I do not receive television service at home and get my news from the radio and the internet. So it wasn't until this morning that I learned about this evil while browsing Roger Kimball's blog '
Roger's Rules'. Where is the Main Scream Media on this story?
Aaron Hanscom, at Pajamas Media, notes, "In fact, this was only the latest – not the first – instance of
mentally disabled individuals being used unwittingly as human bombs." Mr. Hanscom goes on:
Last year, two children with mental problems were put in the
back seat of a car that was subsequently blown up in a suicide attack in Baghdad’s Adhamiyah neighborhood.
A local NGO spokesperson explained how these children are “recruited”:
Some children were given by their families but many others
were kidnapped by insurgents when they knew that those children had
mental problems. Some of them were even taken from the doors of their
houses or schools.
Abu Ahmed is a spokesman for al-Qaeda in Iraq and was quoted by
IRIN. He spoke about 13-year-old Barak Muhammad, a mentally handicapped
boy who was sold to the
terrorist group by his father.
We’re doing a favour to Barak. We’re giving him the chance
to be useful and not suffer daily beatings from his father. Here, with
us, he gets Islamic lessons and is soon going to be a good fighter and
maybe one day even become a suicide bomber in the name of God.
Ahmed’s celebration of death could not be more at odds with Western values.
"At odds with Western values" Gee, you think? Will the Left finally get with the program and recognize this evil and call it what it is? Apparently not. Liberal blogger
Libby, at 'The Newshoggers', has described the use of Down's Syndrome adults as "a sign of adaptation and a brilliant one at that." Brilliant, Libby? You should be ashamed of yourself for even thinking this obscenity.
