SUICIDE BOMBING

What is Suicide Bombing?

One of the most horrifying and hard to control form of terror is Suicide Bombing. This is an attack with intention to kill others and make huge damages, while the attacker expects to kill himself in the process.

Present terrorism and Suicide Bombers

The number of suicide bombing attacks, have been increased in the past few years. Countries like Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan had witnessed the most.  These attacks have been aimed at diverse military and civilian targets in countries like Sri Lanka, Israel since July 6, 1989, Iraq (since the US invasion in 2003), Pakistan and Afghanistan since 2005. In Pakistan more than 3,000 people have been killed in suicide bombing since 2007.

It is not true that suicide bombing is done by the Islamists, in Sri Lanka; Hindu Liberation Tigers of Eelam were also indulging in such activities. In Bagdad there had been many cases of suicide bombing in last few years and many of them were very shocking. In Bagdad a girl of 13 years was made suicide bomber in the month of November 2008.

Even after taking precautions of such situations very strictly in Pakistan, a recent suicide bombing took place in Peshawar on 5^th March 2010. In this bombing 12 people were killed and many were injured.

Suicide Bombing and Taliban

Taliban claimed the responsibility for bombing inside a United States Afghan Base. This was done by a suicide bomber recently. These kinds of activities were done by Taliban very frequently from many years. It is said by a recent report that Taliban is about to unleash 3000 suicide bombers in Pakistan. Taliban is still considered as the biggest and the greatest source of terrorism in whole world due to the production and supply of Heroin in the whole world as it helps them in procuring arms and ammunition from international arms smugglers.
