What kind of religion uses children to commit dastardly acts like this? Just heartbreaking!

A girl as young as seven-years old blew herself up at a market in northeastern Nigeria on Sunday, killing at least five people, according to reports. The Guardian reported the attack took place at a security checkpoint outside a market in Potiskum yesterday. This was the third suicide bombing by children in the country this year. Witnesses said the girl refused to be checked at the gate to the market, and an argument ensued. She let off the bomb, killing herself and five others. Dozens were reported injured. While no one immediately claimed responsibility for this latest attack, it is widely suspected militant Islamist group Boko Haram is behind it.
