As a side note: the first suicide bomber in history may well have been Amalda de Rocas, a Christian teenage girl who was captured by the Turkish armies that were sent to conquer Cyprus in 1570 for no other reason than that they were not Muslim. During the campaign, the Muslims slaughtered entire towns (after promising them safe passage) and captured about 2,400 children for transport back to the robust sex slave market in Islamic Turkey.
Amalda, one of the older girls, realized the hell that awaited them and threw a burning torch into a powder keg, blowing up the ship and sparing several hundred Christian children the indignity of sexual exploitation at the hands of the Muslims of the day.
It is probably unfair to compare Amalda's noble and desperate act to the homicidal mass-murder sprees of Muhammad's modern-day Fedayeen, who cause misery to innocent people simply for the purpose of achieving a gluttonous paradise for themselves... but we thought that it makes for an interesting note.

Although the story of Amalda de Rocas is well documented on many websites, I suspect that it’s nothing but a myth because how can anyone know who blew up the ship, how it was blown up, and why, if there were no survivors?
Anyone who was close enough to have seen Amalda in action could not have possibly lived to tell the tale...
I liked your explanation so please expand on that for a bit of a laugh... make it more convincing!
