12 year old was paid $20 to be a suicide bomber

The IDF nabbed a 12 year old near nablus who was sent to be a suicide bomber.

more disgusting than the fact this kid was only 12 (can we say "child abuse"?), the kid was only paid $20 to do it.

are children only worth $20 in palestine?

if life is that cheap, then isn't it better for Israel to just kill everyone and pay $20 per head? Lets to the math: $20 x 1.5M people = $30M. Seems like a cheaper resolution than ongoing war.

this is of course a rhetorical hyperbole, but the point is that anyone's life is more than $20.

UPDATE: the kid may have been 14 and the 100 shekels is probably worth $22. but two years and 2 bucks doesn't make the situation any more tolerable.

UPDATE: his family claims he was 16 with a 12 year old mentality (some say he was retarded).

but the most disturbing thing is how this kid's brother seemed more concerned that the kid would reveal who sent him than concern for his own brother's life.
