It is a horrid thought. But it's not a big stretch beyond what the Palestinians have done already, in creating a suicide-bomber martyrdom cult.

Here are some things that they have actually done:

The Palestinians have run ad campaigns urging ten year-olds to become martyrs. Mohammend al Dura (the boy who was filmed getting killed in the fight at Netzarim Junction early in the intifada. The Palestinians showed that tape over and over again. Later analysis by Germans and Israelis showed that the boy was shot from Palestinian positions) invites the boys of Palestine to join him in heaven, which is green and has kites flying.

The PA and Hamas run suicide-bomber camps for five year-olds. Toddlers attend funerals dressed as suicide bombers.

Eight year-old girls appear on the Children's Hour on PA TV singing of how they are going to become suicide bombers and wash the land with their blood, and their teachers tell them, bravo.

The newspapers and TV praise martyrs (suicide bombers) as the most honorable and glorious of the palestinians (and pay big bucks to the families).

Little boys come home from school and tell their mothers, when I grown up, I want to be a martyr (The Chicago Tribune ran a story of one Palestinian-American woman who moved back to America after she heard her son say that).
