Humam al-Balwai, the suicide bomber who murdered seven CIA employees in Afghanistan was a brilliant Jordanian physician who recorded a “martyrdom video” before his death expressing hatred of America and his own nation. After watching that video on Arab TV, the father of the killer said: “We are not surprised. Fighting the arrogant, unjust, haughty and tyrant American who kills civilians and innocent people makes the whole Islamic world hate America.” He then added, “They say that Jesus gave his life to people. I say that Humam sacrificed his body and soul for the oppressed.” The bereaved father ignores the distinction between the New Testament account of dying to give eternal life to those you love, and dying to deliver death to those you hate. Blinded by fanaticism, jihadist sympathizers deny the difference between Jesus and a suicide bomber.
