It is the bomber part that matters to me (the murderous bomb placed at
Hebrew University was left untended), but the fact remains that Saddam
Hussein does indeed pay 50 grand per to the families of Palestinian
suicide bombers, whose declared targets are US as well as Israeli.
This is, of course, a substantial incentive for such families to acquiesce
to, encourage and applaud one of their members' decision to become a
suicide bomber; the bombers' parents and siblings materially benefit
from the terror action.
