[ via C. Ward ] Andrea Dworkin on the pathology making Palestinian women into suicide bombers:
The female suicide bombers are idealists who crave committing a pure act, one that will wipe away the stigma of being female. The Palestinian community is not sacrificing low women, women of no accomplishment, women with no future. Instead, the women suicide bombers are the society’s best in terms of human resources, a perverted example of the best and the brightest. There are reasons for this.
