Suicide Bomber Boy Kills Mom & Siblings

"Listen well, children, because someday these lessons will have great life consequences" takes on new meaning at Pakistani madrassas (funded by Western tax dollars):

A mother who tried to stop her son from carrying out a suicide bomb attack triggered an explosion in the family's home in southern Afghanistan that killed the would-be bomber, his mother and three siblings, police said Monday.

The would-be bomber had been studying at a madrassa, or religious school, in Pakistan, and when he returned home over the weekend announced that he planned to carry out a suicide attack, Interior Ministry spokesman Zemeri Bashary said.

It isn't clear that the suicide bomber was inspired in school. Perhaps he got the idea from watching the 2002 movie Honey, I Blew Up the Kid.
