#2 Despite the best efforts of a nice variety of idiots, the Italians haven't left yet. I actually didn't expect them to last as long as the French (who never came at all) or the Spaniards, so colour me impressed, fwiw.

He said the attacker had died. That makes it a suicide attack, doesn't it? Fred, most attackers die over there, thanks to the steady nerves and good marksmanship of our darling boys and girls in uniform. But surely only dieing on purpose should count as a suicide attack, getting all those extra raisins, yes?
