A young boy, possibly only 10 years old, was the suicide bomber who killed an Afghan soldier and wounded two Canadian soldiers Friday, CTV News has learned.

Making the matter even more disturbing is the possibility that the bomb was detonated from afar by remote control.

"He (was) believed to have been wearing a suicide vest,'' Capt. Amber Bineau, a spokeswoman for the Canadian army battle group in Kandahar, said of the boy.


"We do know that the soldiers saw the kid approaching," CTV's Paul Workman reported Friday from Kandahar.

"There's some suggestion that he had his arms in the air and that's why they suspect that it may have been detonated by somebody else."

Iraqi insurgents use eight-year-old girl as suicide bomber
Last updated at 09:55am on 15th May 2008


An eight-year-old girl was strapped with remote-controlled explosives and used as a human bomb by Iraqi insurgents in a blast that killed an Iraqi commander earlier today.

An Iraqi captain was killed and seven other soldiers were injured in the explosion which took place in the town of Youssifiyah, south of Baghdad.

The explosives were detonated as the girl approached the Iraqi commander.

A curfew has now been imposed in the area, and American troops are said to be hunting for those responsible.

"I can confirm that a female suicide bomber attacked an Iraqi Army position," said a U.S Army spokesman.

Involving women in fighting violates religious taboos in Iraq, but extremists are recruiting females and youths to stage suicide attacks in a desperate attempt to beat tightened security measures.

Women can avoid thorough searches at checkpoints because of Islamic sensitivities, and four have carried out suicide bombings since November.

In February, Iraqi insurgents used two women with Downs Syndrome as human bombs in a blast that killed 99 people in Baghdad.

Go look in a dictionary, Mr. Writer.

No, I was asking the question, if she thought that. I do wonder.

BTW, as usual, you added the word "only" which distorts what I said even further. You do that a lot, I think.

And Shep, are you really a writer? I mean, how can you completely miss the "?" ?

BTW, the " in front of the ? and after the ? are for emphasis of the symbol ?

Maybe you could surf the net for ?

Okay?

Disagreeing with your asinine leftwingnut opinions is not "hate".

It's just a matter of a total lack of respect for the leftist/marxist fools you seem to idolize.
