    Of course not.

    A prominent Canadian, Ms. Irshad Manji, has also received death threats for having the 'moral courage, the willingness to speak up when everyone else wants to shut you up'.

    I read her book 'The Trouble with Islam' some years ago.

    'Reports say that since 2000, Black Widows have been responsible for at least half the suicide attacks in Russia.

    Since the Sri Lankan Tamil Tigers pioneered female suicide squads in the 1980s, Palestinian, Lebanese and Kurdish women, as well as Chechens, have turned themselves into human bombs.'

    In Afghanistan & other places, the # is very low, but growing.
