Interesting....

This Mirror piece argues that the London suicide bombers weren't really planning on blowing themselves up, and that they were actually duped into it. Moneyshot: Our source disclosed: "The theory that they were not a suicide squad is gathering pace. They were the weakest link. "We think it's possible they were told that when they pressed buttons to set off timers they'd have a short time to abandon the bombs and get away before the blast. Instead, the bombs exploded immediately." Another intelligence source added: "Whoever is behind this didn't want to waste their best operatives on a suicide mission. Instead they used easily recruited low-grade men who may have believed they'd walk away." This is consistent with what i have been noticing and saying all along : Most of these suicdebombers don't really know that they are about to die; they get tricked into believeing they will just plant the bomb and walk away and then the masterminds behind this make it look like a suicide bombing by setting off the bombs too early. This is not martyrdom: This is deception. This is designed to scare people ( the west) and inspire others (other arabs and muslims) into thinking that such a level of faith and conviction to be commonplace and existing in abundance. Don't be fooled by them!
