Subject: Iraq Raises Suicide Bomber Payments(click)



NABLUS, West Bank (AP) -- Saddam Hussein has increased money for the relatives of suicide bombers from $10,000 to $25,000, drawing sharp criticism from Washington. But Palestinians say the bombers are driven by a priceless thirst for revenge, religious zeal and dreams of glory -- not greed.

Since Iraq upped its payments last month, 12 suicide bombers have successfully struck inside Israel, including one man who killed 25 Israelis, many of them elderly, as they sat down to a meal at a hotel to celebrate the Jewish holiday of Passover. The families of three suicide bombers said they have recently received payments of $25,000.

[> The best way the Israelis can end this is to do what the Russians did. Make sure the survivors of the suicide bombers NEVER live long enough to collect the money. NO one should profit from their children being used as cannon fodder. NO ONE! -- SkinTheKat, 20:51:34 04/03/02 Wed

That's even MORE sick and disgusting from people maiming their own children and putting them out on the streets to BEG.
