Terrorists Add Innocents To Arsenal
BAGHDAD - Insurgents are now using unwitting kidnap victims as suicide bombers - seizing them, booby-trapping their cars without their knowledge, then releasing them only to blow up the vehicles by remote control, the Defense Ministry warned yesterday.
It was unclear from the Defense Ministry's statement whether the insurgents are using kidnap victims because they are having trouble finding recruits for suicide missions.
American officials have said that insurgents often tape or handcuff a suicide driver's hands to a car, or bind a foot to the accelerator pedal, to ensure that the bomber did not back out at the last minute.
The remains of such hands and feet have been found at blast sites.
I would call this "A Profile In Someone Else's courage".
