THE MAKING OF A MARTYR - HOW TERRORISTS ABUSE THEIR OWN CHILDREN

"The Making of a Martyr," a film by Brooke Goldstein spent the summer of 2004 in the West Bank interviewing suicide bombers' families and children, who aspire to "martyrdom", will screen as part of the Brooklyn International Film Festival today and Tuesday.

Read Heather Robinson's article about the film in the New York Sun - it makes chilling reading.

"I was thinking, ‘You know, there's a legal argument here that no one is making, which is that the suicide bomber himself — 18 and under — is as much a victim as the Israeli civilians being killed."
