Scraping the Bottom of the Barrel

[The security forces] arrested the acting director [of a Baghdad psychiatric hospital], accusing him of working with Al Qaeda and recruiting mentally ill women and using them in suicide bombing operations,” a hospital official said.
Ibrahim Muhammad Agel, director of the hospital, was killed in the Mansour district of Baghdad on Dec. 11 by gunmen on motorbikes. Colleagues suspect he was shot for refusing to cooperate with Al Qaeda.
Even before Sunday’s arrest, U.S. officials believed that Al Qaeda was scouring Iraq’s hospitals for mentally impaired patients whom it could dupe into acting as homicide bombers. They said that Al Qaeda had used the mentally impaired as unwitting bombers before.
...An insight into the way Al Qaeda thinks came in a letter written by one of its leaders in Anbar province that the U.S. military seized in November and released in part on Sunday. “It is possible to use doctors working in private hospitals and where the infidels/apostates are treated who have serious conditions to be injected with [air bubbles] that will kill them,” it said.
