Even further back than that. The Bible celebrates Samson committing a suicide attack on the Philistines. The Jewish far right praises modern Israeli terrorists like Baruch Goldstein by comparing them to Samson.
Yeeeeeeah, tell me you didn’t read the article without telling me you didn’t read the article.
I did read the article, and my comment stands.
Despite the clickbait and predictable outrage from the far right, the BBC originally published l an article titled "the story of suicide bombers throughout history: From the fanatical Jews, through the assassins, to the jihadists." Suicide attacks go back as far as the Bible, as I said above.
