SUICIDE BOMBERS COME TO THE UNITED STATES?
Friday, February 06. 2004
My heart broke recently over the shooting deaths of four Iraqi
women who were being driven to their jobs as cleaners at a U.S.
military base. They were merely employed by U.S. led forces in Iraq.
A gunman opened fire on nine of them, killing four. This incident
followed a suicide car bomb days earlier that killed 31 people and
injured 120.
During the same period two American soldiers and three Iraqi policemen
were killed.
On Monday of this week in Baghdad, two suicide bombers blew themselves
up in the offices of the two main Kurdish parties that were aligned
with the U.S. Fifty were killed and hundreds injured, including
top leaders. The bombers were dressed like Muslim clerics.
As of now it is believed the attackers were connected to Alqaeda
and Ansar al-Islam.
These are the same tactics used by Palestinians in Israel to kill
Jews. However, Israel was restrained by the U.S. and told to curtail
its retaliation and to endure the hardships of the suicide bombers.
If the homicide bombers are successful in Israel and in Iraq, please
recognize the fact that the day is coming when suicide bombers will
be here in the U.S.
Do we really understand the truth about the rise of Islam, and
the requirements set by its founder, Muhammad. Do we really understand
the meaning of jihad against all “infidels” meaning
non-Muslims? We need to comprehend the terror network for what it
is and see the aggressive global, political, military, and spiritual
Islamic extremism that manifested itself on 9/11, and that faces
us today.
We are fighting terrorism on other’s soil for now, but if
we get side-tracked with political campaign rhetoric, we could see
men and women weeping on the front pages of our papers.
Pray for this nation. Pray that we as a people will return to the
God of the Bible.
He is our only real protection.
Stand in agreement with this promise that “no weapon formed
against thee shall prosper.” Isaiah 54:17
