Terrorism meets chick lit

Marie Claire <a href="http://www.marieclaire.com/world-reports/news/international/malika-el-aroud-female-terrorist">profiles</a> the Belgian woman whose husband killed Ahmed Shah Massoud, the leader of the Northern Alliance, on September 10, 2001.&nbsp; Some samples:

 "She was a single mom; he was divorced and searching. Together they kindled an epic passion for each other — and jihad."  

  "One can only imagine the sense of satisfaction she feels, having advanced the work of her beloved Abdessattar. Helping each other realize their dreams — that's just what true lovers do....As Malika put it in her memoir, "Ours was the most beautiful love story that any woman could dream of.""
