We are now reaping what we had sowed. Last Saturday's terrorist attacks in Cairo were suicidal in nature. In addition, there is another curse upon us right now. When the first female Palestinian suicide bomber blew herself up, we were all surprised and very few of us thought that she will go straight to hell. Now, we have our own female Egyptian suicide killers. The sky is the limit now to what might happen.
Is it about time to speak against suicide bombings? Is it about time to declare that suicide, any form of suicide, is a grave sin in Islam and all other religions? Is it about time to denounce any suicide bombing whether the victims are Israeli cafe goers, American soldiers in Iraq, Shias in a wedding, Iraqi kurds in a funeral, or tourists in Cairo?
Why now? It was ok when it was just Palestinians blowing up Israelis or al-Qaeda blowing up Americans but when it happens at home all of a sudden it's time to speak against suicide bombings.
Will the Guardian call them martyrs when the first suicide bombers kill innocent people here in the UK?
