Nigeria: 10-year-old female jihad-martyrdom suicide bomber arrested

Jul 30, 2014 8:40 pm By Robert Spencer

child_suicide_bomberIt is hard, and horrifying, to imagine how Hadiza Musa was compelled to become a jihad-martyrdom suicide bomber. In any case, it is still more jihadist savagery — while the world rains condemnations upon Israel.

“10-year-old female suicide bomber, two others arrested in Katsina,” by Stella Omona and Onoja Audu, Daily Independent, July 30, 2014:

The security forces said on Wednesday they have arrested three suspected suicide bombers, among them two female teenagers, 10-year-old Hadiza Musa and 18-year-old Zainab Musa.

The third suspect, a male, was identified as Iliya Dahiru.

They were arrested along Zaria road in Katsina.

Also, another female suicide bomber was said to have exploded an Improvised Explosives Devise (IED) at the Kano State Polytechnic where some students had gone to collect their call up letters for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) posting.

Six of the students were killed and another set of six people injured.

Wednesday’s attack brought to four the number of suicide bomb attacks in the Kano city involving young female bombers.

Coordinator of the National Information Centre, Mike Omeri, who disclosed this in Abuja, said the suspects were arrested in a Honda CRV car when they were asked to disembark for security checks.

Hadiza was discovered to have been strapped with an explosives belt and immediately, Iliya and Zainab made attempt to escape with the car but were blocked by concerned Nigerians, Omeri said.

“It is on this note that we appeal to parents to consciously observe and watch their children’s activities to prevent them from participating in unwholesome activities, particularly acts of terrorism,” he said.

He also warned parents against engaging private Koran teachers for their wards, advising rather that they be taught in selected regular Islamic schools.

He denied rumours that the abducted Chibok schools girls were the ones being sent out as suicide bombers.

Force Public Relations Officer, Frank Mba, who gave reasons why terrorist groups engage the use of females as suicide bombers, warned that Nigerians should be prepared henceforth to see more female security personnel on the roads and other places as a counter strategy to checkmate the trend.

“The major reason terrorists use females is because women generally raise fewer suspicions, particularly when there are security layouts and they take advantage of this to try to indoctrinate and recruit suicide female bombers.

“The suspicious is even less when the female is a minor.

“Again, by our rule of engagement, male security officers are not allowed to search females but we are developing counter-terrorism strategy to deal with that.

“You will begin to see increased female security personnel on our roads and other places.

“We equally want to appeal to parents and local government authorities to help in stamping out hawking on our streets, particularly hawking where minors are involved, if possible keep off the streets so that when you see them on the streets, it will be easier to control them,” Mba stated.

Director, Media and spokesperson for the Directorate of State Security (DSS), Marylin Ogar, called for scrutiny of methods for vetting religious leaders, advising religious leaders and the media to collectively work together with government and the security forces to fight insurgency and terrorism.

Also on Wednesday, Centre for Advocacy of Justice and Rights, a Jos based civil society group, raised the alarm over introduction of young girls into the bombing squad of Boko Haram in the last two weeks in some Northern states.

The group in a statement in Jos by its Programme Officer, Conflict Mitigation and Management, Pwakim Jacob Choji, said: “We hope it is not the Chibok girls that are being brain washed by their captors to commit such acts.

“If our fears are true, then it is already a national tragedy as many of these girls were yet to be accounted for,” the statement added….

    THIS is Islam

    Clearly their Islam Muslim parents encouraged them to blow themselves up

    utterly disgusting

    Muslims makes the Nazis look like pacifists by comparison

    This child in the photo above represents the true face of Islam, a religion founded by a horrible (albeit clever) fraud whose character reveals psychopathy, schizophrenia, narcissism and pedophilia (one need not look any further than Muslim sources for confirmation of this).

    What a deeply, profoundly, sick ideology Islam is. It does not deserve to be classed as just another major religion along with other religions like Hinduism, Christianity, Buddhism and Judaism. These laatter religions deserve respect from informed people with common sense, regardless of their individual beliefs. Islam, by contrast, though a religion (while also being a totalitarian ideology), deserves zero respect. It is truly disgusting. Nothing, actually, is more disgusting than Islam, a few other ideologies as much, but none more so. Yes, it’s this repugnant.

      luckily many X Muslims have seen the light and are trying to escape from the hell that is the death cult of Islam. The fact that apostates are t killed is proof that Islam is no faith of Gpod- FEAR, not faith it what drives Islam

      • Richie says

        Jul 30, 2014 at 10:05 pm

        sorry, typo- The fact apostates are murdered is proof that independent thought is not tolerated in Islam, and FEAR not FAITH is what drives the entire cult

    Since Islam is an evil ideology, everything that springs from it is evil. The evil is not only in theory, it is an actuality and can be observed. The picture above is an example of visible evil. There are many that are much worse stomach turners than that, but they are all evil and they all spring from the same source…Islam…

    Poor little kids -they are indoctrinated from birth -they believe what their parents teach them as they in turn were taught by their parents and so it goes on -this ideology would be more -evil than the nazi’s ever was -it is spreading -world wide by immigration and many many babies -they have said they didnt have to go to war they would overtake from within and that is what they are doing aided and abetted by the dhimmi’s and the politically correct -what does it say about a -religion?that sacrifices it’s children in such a deceptive horrendous death for world domination?

    This is the truth about these people they HAV no value on human life . When a mother gives her own daughter over to death at the age of ten . Why didn’t mom set the example for the kid . So demonized to cheat the cild out her life itself . One person called them “Soulless animals ” how far off could she have been ?

    The evils of feminism and Western thought are ravaging the Muslim world. True Muslims believe that MEN are the ones who fight wars, while women raise the children. This epidemic of Muslim women who have taken up jihad is alarming, we need to rescue our religion and way of life before it is too late. Before you know it, they will turn their weapons on their brothers and husbands for taking more women as wives.

      The “Muslim world” would have nothing without the West and India. You’re all a bunch of parasites. You don’t invent or create or discover, just leech off everyone else. What a bunch of losers are Mohammedans and their vile Jihad ideology.

      Yep feminism and western thought are to blame. True Muslims believe Men fight wars, ok cool how about Islam breed some real men?

      Well, *this* is grimly laughable—that this vile Mohammedan believes that this abuse of little girls is somehow “feminist”.

      Note, too, that this is the *only* problem he has with it—using a child to murder Infidels is perfectly fine.

      The only fear he has is that Muslimahs might take issue with being treated as interchangeable chattel—but his concerns here are probably unfounded, since these women and girls are, after all, willing to die (and kill) for the foul creed of Islam.

      You thugs don’t have a “way “way of life”—just a way of death. Damn barbarians.

    This is a different kind of child abuse. This one is child abuse to a new extreme.
    It’s just like the cartoon where the child of a Muslim mother asks “Mommy do we believe in peace? ” The Muslim mother replies, all while strapping a bomb vest on her child, “No we believe in pieces. So go out and make some of yourself.
    What heinous mad and evil Islam can bring on the mind and soul of a person.

    The Islamic clerics are, no doubt, behind much of this awful wickedness.They are just using these youth for for Islamic agenda. These imams with their lies and lines as “”We will honor you.” and “You will go to paradise.” and then there is the one “We are doing this for Allah.” Some “We.” As stated before the reader might very much notice the the imams along with mullah are never the ones who go out and commit the suicide bombings. All the Muslim clerics do is brainwash and mind condition other in do the suicide attack. All the same time the murderous bombing are going on these same Islam clerics sit home safe. This alone say a lot about the real character of those imams and mullahs.

    Nigeria: 10-year-old female jihad-martyrdom suicide bomber arrested
    ………………………

    There’s nothing these damned animals will not stoop to.

    More:

    “It is on this note that we appeal to parents to consciously observe and watch their children’s activities to prevent them from participating in unwholesome activities, particularly acts of terrorism,” he said.
    ………………………

    What comes to mind when you think of your ten-year-old child engaging in “unwholesome activities? Shoplifting candy bars? Being taught bad words? Smoking? Playing “doctor” with the boy next door?

    Among civilized people, the idea that she would be blowing herself up in order to kill other innocent people wouldn’t even be on the radar…

    There have been lots of these stories, over the years, up till now, mainly involving the Taliban in Afghanistan.

    And now Boko Haram.

    To quote you, graven; God, I hate islam.

    This is just one of these stories.

    Along with the others, I find this sickening.

    BUT a question:

    at the beginning-it says 3 people- 2 female teenagers– this 10 year old and an 18 year old, and a male.

    Since when is 10 a teenager?

    10 years old . (I have friends with twin daughters about this age) are a bit above little children but not in any sense (chronological; maturity; or any other rational standard) teenagers let alone adults.

    ————————————————————————————–\

    Also–send the children to approved Muslim schools?

    Are they expecting any other result ( then from home schooling with Muslim teachers)?
