TY - JOUR PY - 2008// TI - Suicide terrorism and Islam JO - American foreign policy interests A1 - Küntzel, M. SP - 227 EP - 232 VL - 30 IS - 4 N2 - Suicidal killing was not seen in the first 1,360 years of Islam. It is a recent phenomenon that has provoked doubt, questioning, and revulsion. This analysis argues that such killings will end when Muslim religious and political leaders, as well as survivors of the innocent killed in deadly assaults simply because they were unfortunate enough to be nearby, react to attacks meant to kill indiscriminately in order to fan terror. It urges them to speak out for the innocent and persuade the United Nations to outlaw suicide terrorism as a crime against humanity. © 2008 NCAFP.
