Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, has been documenting the rise of radical factions in both Pakistan and Afghanistan since 2001. In her present documentary ‘Children of the Taliban’ she highlights Pakistan’s suicide bombing schools where the Taliban recruit boys in staggering numbers to become human bombs. This is nothing new from the religion of peace. Yassir Arafat established them long ago but this latest travesty has become monstrous in scope. Ms. Obaid-Chinoy is bravely trying to create a pilot program to counter the radicalism breeding a culture of death in the region. A quote from former Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir comes to mind – “We will have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us.”

I never have and never will understand the mindset.
Seriously twisted.
Don't even try, Raine. If a mother or father can send their own child out to be schooled in blowing up as many innocent people as possible in a suicide bombing, they are hideously incomprehensible.
For them , hate is stronger than love.
They feel morally qualified to murder anyone not believing as they do, Bernita. What I'm having trouble grasping is the concept that we can negotiate with them. The stealth jihad they've adopted consists of lying to our faces while finding ways secretly to kill us. Still... the act of holding your child at birth, raising them with all their little traits, and then sending them out to a school for suicide bombers? Yeah, that hate trumps love without doubt.
