Try as I might, I can't find those seventy-two virgins mentioned in the Koran:

islam101.com

islam101.com

The closest thing seems to be in chapter 55, but that seems to be a description of heaven generally, and not specific re how to get there, nor the number of virgins.

So I assume the terrorist are relying upon an interpretation of what's actually in the Koran? Or can somebody cite a specific verse?

It seems to me those guys are going to be severely disappointed.
