Good to see there are at least some in the Pentagon with
enough nouse to notice that Islamic suicide bombers and
terrorists are following the Koran; not "hijacking a noble
religion" as the spin meisters maintain.

The suicide bombers need to know that they, and many of their
victims, will not go to "paradise", but will remain under the
curse of sin, and death, and hell, unless they repent and accept
God's free gift of salvation and eternal life through Jesus Christ.

Suicide bombers follow Quran,
concludes Pentagon briefing

Tasked with pinpointing motivation, analysts find
terrorists 'rational actors' following 'holy book'

book" the Quran after all, according to intelligence briefings
obtained by WND.

In public, the U.S. government has made an effort to avoid linking the
terrorist threat to Islam and the Quran while dismissing suicide
terrorists as crazed heretics who pervert Islamic teachings.

"The terrorists distort the idea of jihad into a call for violence and
murder," the White House maintains in its recently released "National
Strategy for Combating Terrorism" report. 

But internal Pentagon briefings show intelligence analysts have
reached a wholly different conclusion after studying Islamic scripture
and the backgrounds of suicide terrorists. They've found that most
Muslim suicide bombers are in fact students of the Quran who are
motivated by its violent commands u making them, as strange as it
sounds to the West, "rational actors" on the Islamic stage.

In Islam, it is not how one lives one's life that guarantees spiritual
salvation, but how one dies, according to the briefings. There are
great advantages to becoming a martyr. Dying while fighting the
infidels in the cause of Allah reserves a special place and honor in
Paradise. And it earns special favor with Allah.

"Suicide in defense of Islam is permitted, and the Islamic suicide
bomber is, in the main, a rational actor," concludes a recent Pentagon
briefing paper titled, "Motivations of Muslim Suicide Bombers."
