Possibly, but not certainly, a woman. From AFP, May 15 (thanks to JCB):
HERAT, Afghanistan (AFP) - A suicide bomber apparently wearing a burqa detonated in a busy bazaar in southwestern Afghanistan, killing 16 people including four policemen, a provincial governor said Thursday.The extremist Taliban movement, which regularly uses suicide attacks in its campaign against the government, immediately claimed responsibility for the blast in Farah province's Delaram district.
Police were the target, Farah deputy governor Mohammad Younus Rasouli said.
"Twelve civilians have been killed and 22 others wounded. Four police have been killed and six others wounded," he told AFP.
Rasouli said the body of the bomber was destroyed. "But we have found pieces of women's dress, shoes and a burqa," he said, referring to the all-covering garment worn by most Afghan women which also hides the face....

If it was a male, would he still get his 72 virgins in allah heaven ?
would they be able to recognize him ?
islam is truly evil, and islam owns this type of abomination.
It belongs around the neck of islam.
Consider as much when you see a mosque or confront a muslim - "you own this".

Slightly OT, but there are 13 new topics on JW for May 15, 2008, with 5 more on DW. Is this a record? With 11,080 'crimes against humanity' by Jihad viciousness to date, there is something going on... Full moon? Nope...
It's just another routine day in Jihad, so using burqas to hide and detonate bombs is no big deal!
Situation normal, just another day in Jihad. How primitive can it get? Follow Islamic Jihad... It ceases to surprise... Situation normal by the vicious primitives of Allah.
