A Homicide Bomber is a person who straps explosives to his body and detonates them in a crowded place, combining the heinous sins of suicide and mass murder. Homicide bombers are terrorists who kill innocent people by means of explosives secretly carried on their persons, knowing that they will be killed in the attack. The liberal media improperly refers to these people as "suicide bombers" although their intent is to murder others, not to commit suicide. [1]

The typical homicide bomber is a young man, although in a few cases women[2] or teenagers have been goaded into doing this (see honor killing). Sometimes the homicide bomber drives a truck or other vehicle containing a more deadly load of explosives. Airplanes have been used (see Kamikaze below; also 9/11).

The action of homicide bombers was best summed up by John Ashcroft in a 2002 interview with the LA Times: "Islam is a religion in which God requires you to send your son to die for Him. Christianity is a faith in which God sends His son to die for you."[3]

In a hideous variation of this crime, adults reportedly strapped live grenades onto a child's body and sent him into a G.I. bar in Viet Nam, knowing that lonely American men being fond of children would be unlikely to be suspicious of a child.[Citation Needed] The Irish Republican Army (IRA) for a time forced captives to drive primed bomb-laden vehicles into security force checkpoints having taken the unwilling bombers' families hostage[4] [5]


The kamikaze were Japanese pilots who flew their planes into Allied naval vessels in World War II as a human substitute for guided missiles.

The term kamikaze is derived from the Japanese name for the hurricanes that drove back the Mongol invaders; meaning "divine wind" or "wind of the gods".
