Hey Gals, Check This Out

Israeli soldiers caught another Palestinian woman trying to blow up Jewish babies:

Soldiers from the elite Golani Reconnaissance unit on Thursday arrested a Palestinian woman allegedly preparing to carry out a suicide bombing against Israelis in the near future."

I couldn't find much on the poor woman they just picked up, but check out this portrait of the last one, who murdered four Israelis:


Yes, that's her in her suicide bombing video with the 3 year old toddler she abandoned when she blew herself up. She left that child motherless explicitly at her husband's urging, because otherwise he would have had her stoned to death for cheating on him. Instead of being the victim of an honor killing, she chose to "restore her honor" by killing herself and trying to take some Jewish mothers with her.
I can only imagine what this woman who just got caught did to deserve her own miserable fate. Past crimes that warranted honor killings have included being seen with a male who is not a relative, being married to an impotent husband, and being raped. Taking actions to oppose Islamist ideology should be the overriding feminist issue of our time - but instead it seems much easier for Western academics to sit in their cushy offices deconstructing the heteronormative matrix and sending their graduate students forwards about upcoming campus "Bush Stole the Election" rallies.
