'I wanted to be a martyr and kill Israeli soldiers'
A woman suicide bomber arrested by Israeli forces as she prepared to blow up a Tel Aviv bus station vowed yesterday to carry out a successful "martyr attack" as soon as she is freed from jail.

"Yes, I will do it again if I can," said Obeida Khalil, 27. "When I put the suicide explosives belt on I felt very happy, very content. I was angry when they caught me because I was not able to be a martyr.

"I wanted to be the first female martyr and to kill as many Israeli soldiers as possible. I chose the bus station because my brother blew himself up there."

It would appear Palestinian terrorists are progressive enough to provide equal opportunities to Palestinian women!

3. An just what would drive anyone to be desperate enough
to want to do something like this? I'm sure the Israelis are totally Innocent of any wrong doing, like destroying peoples homes, business, shooting kids for throwing rocks. Driving bulldozers over unarmed women, etc.
