Hey Gals, Check This Out - Hamas Wants You To Blow Yourself Up Next To Israeli Tanks

Not that it will actually do anything against the Merkava's fourth generation armor. But the international press will totally love it:

200 female suicide bombers are awaiting the Merkava tanks, Hamas senior Dr. Nizar Rian told the Kuweiti Al Jareeda Friday. Rian also said his organization had more than 50,000 armed fighters, who were endowed with "courage and are able to fight in the relevant territory."... "They sleep and walk about armed with explosives, ready to attack Israeli tanks and to prevent them from progressing," Rian said. Women, he added, were not a new addition to the terrorist group's arsenal. Women were sent in the past to hit the "heart of the Israeli occupier's home" and while some Palestinians were against the use of women in combat roles, "the duty to guard the motherland is more important than any other priority."

Women often end up becoming suicide bombers for Hamas as an alternative to getting murdered in an honor killing:

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... 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.

In return, Hamas promises that female suicide bombers will be honored as the lead virgin in the harem of 72 virgins for some male suicide bomber.
