Transportation to Paradise
Aug 20, 2005
A Saudi tells us of his unsuccessful attempt to get 72 virgins.
The man described the procedures as "primitive and arbitrary" and usually depend on luck and coincidences; men willing to become jihadists travel to town near the Iraqi borders where they are identified (from their looks) and spoken to by the recruiting agents who ask them what they they're doing here and so a deal is made.
For example this guy paid 5,000 Saudi Riyal (~1,700 $) just to be taken 30 miles beyond the Iraqi borders but his journey failed.
These type of businesses must be booming at the borders of Iraq. The only work one has to do is simply transport deluded -- and affluent -- Jihadists into Iraq and presto you've made more money in a day than most Iraqis make in a year.
So very sad.
