Suicide Bomber enters Ops Center in a wheelchair

Iraqattackx I just recently did a research paper on Suicide Bombers some of the techniques they use when in USA Today there is a report about a man using a wheelchair containing hidden explosives talked his way past security - into an Iraqi Operations Center and then blew himself up.  Combine this with last week's attack by an adolescent - and you can see that terrorist groups are really trying to be innovative in their approach to escape detection of their suicide bombers.  The suicide bomber is no longer just some middle aged, poorly educated male who has nothing to live for.  There is a rise in female participation, some posing pregnant, disabled, and participants.  While motivations are uniquely different, the evidence is clear that terrorist are only going to increase their use of suicide bombers and employ whatever means necessary to disguise their bomber.
