'''Homicide bombers''' are [[terrorists]] who kill innocent people by means of explosives secretly carried on their persons, knowing that they will be killed in the attack. The [[liberal media]] improperly refers to these people as "[[suicide bomber]]s" although their intent is to murder others, not to commit suicide.
A '''Homicide Bomber''' is a person who straps explosives to his body and detonates them in a crowded place, combining the heinous sins of [[suicide]] and [[mass murder]].

The typical suicide bomber is a young man, although in a few cases women<ref>About 30% of the suicide operations in Sri Lanka have been conducted by women.[http://www.janes.com/security/international_security/news/usscole/jir001020_1_n.shtml Suicide terrorism: a global threat] - Jane's Intelligence Review </ref>
or teenagers have been goaded into doing this (see [[honor killing]]). Sometimes the suicide bomber drives a truck or other vehicle containing a more deadly load of explosives. Airplanes have been used (see Kamikaze below; also [[9/11]]).
The action of homicide bombers was best summed up by [[John Ashcroft]] in a 2002 interview with the [[LA Times]]: "[[Islam]] is a religion in which God requires you to send your son to die for Him. [[Christianity]] is a faith in which God sends His son to die for you."<ref>Los Angeles Times, February 16, 2002</ref>

In a hideous variation of this crime, adults reportedly strapped live grenades onto a child's body and sent him into a G.I. bar in Viet Nam, knowing that lonely American men being fond of children would be unlikely to be suspicious of a child. The [[Irish Republican Army]] ([[IRA]]) for a time forced captives to drive primed bomb-laden vehicles into security force checkpoints having taken the unwilling bombers' families hostage.

The '''kamikaze''' were Japanese pilots who flew their planes into Allied naval vessels in [[World War II]] as a human substitute for [[guided missile]]s.
The term ''kamikaze'' is derived from the [[Japanese]] name for the hurricanes that drove back the Mongol invaders; meaning "divine wind" or "wind of the [[god]]s".
