The suicide bomber, like no other figure of modern terrorism, is consistently in the center of public attention. But while the story of the virgins waiting in paradise long since solidified into a popular stereotype, the motivations of the female bombers usually are, at best, the subject of wild speculation. And yet it is just the environment of the female suicide bombers that conveys the deepest insights into the workings of Islamic-fundamentalist networks and societies. The Israeli psychologist Dr. Anat Berko spoke to many female suicide bombers about their desires, motivations and fears and collected the results in the book "Smart Bombs - Women and Children as Suicide Bombers". We would like to invite you to a discussion with one of the leading terrorism researchers about these studies.
