Trust Mr Mohiuddin Anwar to make a retarded and ignorant comment and you can't ever go wrong. Yes, a vast majority of suicide bombers today are Muslims in carrying out the ancient Hashashin tradition of Hassan-i-Sabah. Today, the tradition has spread to the Sunni sect of Islam who seem to have adopted it from following the Shia Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Historically, though, there have been several other places where
traditions of martyrdom in battle were little more than variations of
the suicide bomber's ways. The Vikings believed in going to heaven by
dying in battle and getting virgins and liquor long before the
Islamic religion even existed. Their Valhalla was little different
from the virgin and wine-filled heaven that Al Qaeda and other
brainwashed jihadi idiots seek today. There have also been Hindu
suicide bombers among the LTTE and other Sri Lankan Tamil groups and
these have predated the current Middle Eastern Muslim suicide bombers
in their operations by more than a decade. Even earlier, there were
the Kamikaze of Japan who followed the Shinto religion in that
country in WW-2, and, recent research and investigation into the
history of the Nazis has shown that they, too, had their own suicide-
soldiers through that same war though they were not as well organized
as the Japanese were. And the Nazis were mostly Catholic with a few
Lutherans thrown into their ranks.
So, what is the point of this patently ridiculous and ignorant post?
If Mr Mohiuddin Anwar thinks that suicide bombings are a symbol of
nobility among the followers of his religion, I would like to ask him if he is willing to blow himself up to demonstrate his devotion to the ideals that he seeks to praise.
