Triple suicide attack raises questions in Iraq

<snip>There are already signs that suicide bombings, seen by militants as a fast track to heaven, have some appeal to Iraqis, even after decades of secular rule enforced by the iron fist of toppled leader Saddam Hussein.

Before blowing himself up three weeks ago, Yasser Jumaili told his parents to hand out chocolates to celebrate his martyrdom, relatives said.

Jumaili, in his mid 20s, rammed a car packed with explosives into a U.S. military target near Falluja, where a major American offensive in January was designed to pacify the area.

Three Iraqi militants interviewed by Reuters said that they had opposed al Qaeda in the past because of its "extreme" views but were ready to join ranks with it to end the U.S. occupation.

"We did not agree with al Qaeda before. But now I am ready to blow myself up because the Americans killed my brother," said Abdullah, 25, an Iraqi militant from Falluja.

When the last Iraqi has blown himself up, we'll complete the invasion by calling Iraq by it's new, (Christian) God given name: New Texas!!!

4. In WW II, it was our GIs handing out chocolate to the local kids.

It's chilling to read this specific example of what has always been predicted to be the outcome of Bush's invasion of Iraq.
