Why is the iraq war not coming to an end? We all know it was wrong.

We all want thetroops to come home and pray that the Iraqi people will find peace.

There are many reasons, one of them is Ahmad, a young failed suicide bomber.

If you want the full story, below is the link, later will I give a short summary:

This is a link to the Arab news website that brought the story to the world.

Why did Ahmad go to Iraq?

Ahmad said he had gone to Iraq out of a conviction that he should do something to help his Iraqi brothers though he had not consulted scholars about his plans and in fact ignored the advice of his parents and family.

Just two clarifications there. "Iraqi brothers" means "Iraqi Sunni Muslim brothers", because even with his limited understanding, he knows that he'll be killing Iraqi Shiites muslims; however he's a good Sunni and like all other Sunnis, doesn't approve of Shiites chest-slapping and other strange ways. Secondly, it was undoubtedly a "scholar", some Imam or teacher with Al Qaeda connections, who, far from discouraging him, actually recruited him in the first place. "Listen Ahmad, you're a good Muslim, there's nothing for you here, you could go to Iraq and fight for the Muslim Brotherhood, think how much better Paradise will be than what you have now. You'll die eventually anyway, so why not go sooner and guarantee yourself the place that all Jihadis have in Paradise?" Fair enough, he says.

....he had entered Iraq through Syria with the help of smugglers.
.... He said he was taken to an Al-Qaeda cell in Doura district in the south of Iraq where he was trained to drive an oil tanker.

Now Ahmad is not trained to fire a rocket launcher or a machine gun. That would be a bit beyond him, and anyway, that's reserved for the Iraqi insurgents who are mostly army trained and certainly plan to "fight another day". Why go and kill yourself when hordes of stupid Saudi kids are streaming across the border asking for the privilege? The Iraqi insurgents are not daft. So he learns to drive his oil tanker. Then comes the big day.

On the day of explosion, he was told to take the tanker to the Al-Mansour neighborhood. “They asked me to stop the tanker near a concrete barrier, saying someone would come to receive the tanker from me.

Do you know, I don't think he's necessarily being disingenuous here. There's just a chance that he actually believes that story. On the other hand, perhaps he's just a lousy liar. Anyway..

But no sooner had I stopped the tanker than it exploded,� he said.

I don't suppose they'd have trusted him with the detonator. Probably some Iraqi with a radio-controlled one at a safe distance.

The young man was luckily ejected from the tanker by the force of the blast,
Ahmad who sustained severe burns all over his body was arrested by Iraqi police who later handed him over to Saudi authorities.

...where he is being nurtured by Saudi medical resources, having killed....

12 innocent Iraqis, including seven members of the same family


WHY IS HE NOT IN PRISON? THE WAR WILL NOT STOP UNTIL PEOPLE LIKE HIM STOP GOING TO IRAQ?
