BAGHDAD – A woman hiding among Iranian pilgrims with a bomb strapped under her black robe killed more than three dozen people Sunday outside a Baghdad mosque during ceremonies commemorating the death of one of Shiite Islam's most revered saints.
In all the article, I went back to reread the above paragraph. I find it very sad that people are murdering over religious reasons. Here is either a thug, or a pawn of thugs, no matter who or what she appears to be, that exploded so violently she blew up and murdered in cold blood, 36 men, women, and children in front of a mosque. They just happened to be outside, talking during a partron sainted holiday. In this murderous blast, many more had to be treated for injuries.
Who is responsible for this, its was suggested in the article, that Shiites sent this victim through promises of a better afterlife, exemption from committing suicide, and perhaps hard cash for her family. Or, she was a hostage and had to do it to save her children and family, or she was a zealot who wanted to die for her beliefs and take. what they consider, the trash out as well.
What ever reason, this act was out of revenge from an earlier Sunni attack leaving 23 dead. This tit for tat has cost a total of 59 lives ended for no reason other than revenge and religion. But the refusal of both sides not to stop is also madness. Arabs cannot stop killing each other in record numbers over religious differences, nor can it insist on being the only religion in the world, because that is not going to happen with over three billion people on this planet.
Islam and Judaism are very close in rituals, and beliefs in a one God, no son. The Islamic concept of God is exactly like the Jews. God is invisible, and manifests only what he wants us to see, at his choosing. God acts within the big and personal pictures of our lives. What this agreement in the accepted definitions of God or Allah, you would think commonalities could be built up in positive ways to unite these two great monotheism in some way, if not in religious practices and rituals.
God, Allah, has paved the way for Judaism and Islam to live together, equally, and in peace, in Israel. Land of the Jews. And, it must remain in the hands of the Jews, with complete political, governemntal, and military control over their own destiny. No, not even one attempt at a Muslimization or Islamic take over of Israel.

I find it interesting when looking at all the articles posted on the Vine about terrorism, such as this one, and the attention they draw. Not much here, this is also similar to several posts in my space.
Here is an interesting article, on one instant a mad woman, for whatever reason, has murdered 38 people in an instant, pure terrorism. Where is the outrage? Where is the UN, where are the demonstrations?
If these people put their interests and energies in the terrorism that has already responsible from murdering innocent people from India, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Egypt, and many African, Asian, and South American countries we could focus on the real issues of who these people are, and get them taken out. I think if these domines fall, then the Middle East will calm down.In Pakistan, a IED murdered sixty people, in Mumbai there were over 130 and I did not see the outrage.
