The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is reminding law-enforcement officials of the increased use of female suicide bombers worldwide, and warning that women terrorists might hide explosives in devices 'that mimic the look of a pregnant woman.'
Here's a link to the full article by NBC's investigative reporting team. Read the whole thing.
Incidentally, if that report doesn't clear out the cobwebs and focus one's thought processes, well, never mind, life's too short. Literally.

Terrorists know no decent bounds. The use of two mentally handicapped women at the recent pet market bombings in Iraq set a new low. And mentally handicaped persons have been used before, who don't even know what's going on while bombs are being placed on them. And the recently discovered of an Al Qaeda video to recruit children because the adult male fighters have been so depleted was ghastly as well. Simply pathetic and morally bankrupt.

Pathetic and morally bankrupt? That assumes there was an original level of morality that we might recognize. These folks do not live in a system of morals that we recognize. Its pointless to whine and tsk tsk about their lack of morals. They will do whatever it takes to provoke and destroy what we do recognize as moral and civilized precisely BECAUSE they perceive us as the amoral and uncivilized heathens worthy only of subjugation or extermination.
Until we recognize this and act accordingly (negotiations and education are pointless and feed into their strategy) we are assisting them in their jihad.
