2017-06-27
Baqubah (IraqiNews.com) An Islamic State suicide bomber’s belt exploded prematurely, accidently killing the militant and 12 other comrades in Diyala, according to a top police official.

Diyala police chief Jassem al-Saadi said in a statement that twelve IS militants in Mekheisa region, northeast of Baqubah, were bidding farewell to a comrade who was on his way for a suicide attack. Saadi said that the explosive belt on the bomber’s body went off to kill well-wishers instead.

The incident occurred during what the rite which the group dubs “blood party”, according to Saadi.

#7  In the early days of Vietnam, the SF had a program of making unstable rounds of ammo, mixing them in with good ammo, and then leaving the batch where the Viet Cong could get it. The liberals threw a hissy-fit and the SF was forced to abandon the program.

I hope the idea is back, as I can't think of a more deserving group of monsters.
