It really saddens me that there have not been more opinion pieces on the possibility that two female "suicide" bombers who struck two markets in Baghdad on Friday had Down syndrome [news story, Feb. 3].
First and foremost, if they had Down syndrome and were manipulated, they were not suicide bombers. They were innocent victims of people who have no respect for human life. I expect that from terrorists.
What I don't understand is why we Americans are not more vociferous in our disgust at the utter depravity of this act.
