This is depth of new lows, and evidence of the depravity and abuse of Arab young children by their so-called friends.
The new Sbarro’s restaurant on Jerusalem’s Jaffa Road was targeted by an Israeli Arab couple whose plans to blow themselves up there following their wedding were thwarted by Israeli security forces.
What type of upbringing is required to cause two young people to agree to kill themselves following their wedding and to take as many other human beings, people they do not know and have not caused them personal harm, along with them? This was not a last minute idea. As the article states, the man question had planned to do commit a massacre 1/2 a year in advance, and then recruited his young bride to join him in death, mass murder, and destruction. What type of human being asks his bride to kill herself? What type of woman says yes to such a request?
What does it take to raise a child with that much hate that though they COULD have a wonderful life together, they would prefer to throw it away, throw the chance of children and happiness into the trash for the pleasure of killing as many other unknonw human beings as one can?

You wonder how these people would have fared had they been subjected to the horrors of The Holocaust. Would they have clung to life and the survival of their people at all costs?
Unfortunately, the disregard that fanatics have for their life on earth is their most dangerous weapon. As we've seen, military might can't compete with it.

Actually.....I just ran a blank,I have no words!?!

One that teaches them to hate Jews before they can read or write; to believe that their society was kept back by past European colonialism; where their self-identity is nurtured to be wounded victims because their culture is being restricted to the ghetto of the middle east by crusades and where the presence of Isreal is an insult to injury; where anger and resentment are taught the way we teach forgiveness, fairness and sportsmanship; and where the mosques and media promote these ideas and try to stifle external influences. I dunno.
