Girl next door who became a suicide bomber
Girl next door who became a suicide bomber
Murielle Degauque was, by all accounts, a normal child. A typical girl next door, you might say. True, as a teenager growing up in southern Belgium, she dabbled in drugs and preferred boys to books. But there was nothing to indicate that she would become the first Western woman to launch a suicide bomb attack in the name of jihad when she blew herself up in Iraq last month.
And the putrid cancer of fundamentalism spreads…like a virus, infect and kill others, then kill the host.
