I saw a headline just now that says that the Israelis released a 12 year old girl who had been captured while carrying out a terrorist attack. Let's ignore all the usual items about the evils of prison for children and about the need to stop terror attacks. Let's focus instead on the vile people who would use a child to carry out a terror attack.
There is no question that those who sent this girl on her mission are monsters. I have to wonder if the girl even understood what was about to happen to her if she had stabbed her target with a knife as planned. I doubt it. Most 12 year olds don't think ahead to the consequences of their actions.
So why would the Palestinian terrorists use an unsuspecting child to do their dirty work? The answer is simple. The hope of the terrorists was that the Israelis would not bother to stop or search a child and that the attack could proceed. They don't care about the child, only about the attack.
