Do they hate the Americans/New Government in Iraq that much?

my guess its just a new twist, like all the new types of IED's they find. it would be kinda unexpected for women there to be any sort of a commanding figure. Which is what these suicide bombers do, or i should say, its what they see themselves as. And these women are already near worthless in "men's" eyes. Time and time again you hear of stories of women escaping massive beatings and rapes ALLOWED by their own families, stoning for some slight these women did. Its just another way to exploit women they deem worthless. Sad thing is they think they will be remembered for their "ultimate" sacrifice.

It breaks the profile of the standard male bomber. Until recently, a woman would not have been deemed worthy of the holy mission of a suicide bomber. Now they have found out that women can more easily move around and thus gain access to possible targets.
Do they still get the virgins? Are they male virgins? What woman wants to spend eternity having to deal with 72 inexperienced guys?

Cause the males are finally wising up and realizing that it's stupid to kill yourself over something that they'll never win.

well because they want to be more accepted in society if they allow women that means they are less shovinistic( how ever you spell that) Also they want to be America like women have equal oppurtunities here.

they are less likely to be searched for gunes/explosives. this search performed by a male would be considered abuse by Iraqis, and there are probably not enough female soldiers to execute these searches.
