    I heard about the female bombers, but I didn't hear the full story.

    It came as a surprise to me. I just don't think of suicide bombers as female at all. I mostly think of them as male, so I wasn't expecting that.

    I was really shocked about that too, I was under the impression that most women didn't have the right mentality for a suicide bomber. This clearly proved me wrong.

    Women and children are actually used more than you would think in terrorist actions, simply because they are the ones least suspected. Plus the article says that in 2004 a suicide bomber killed 10 people outside of a different station and she was also female.

    I find it so sad that we claim to be so advanced, yet here we are still blowing one another up.

    It's good that the USA is helping out. Getting along better with Russia can lead to a full-on alliance, which would be great. The USA, Canada, UK, France, Russia, Japan (if they'd be allowed to have a military again), etc. teaming up for whatever reason would be a great team.
