#1 This has been obvious for years. The interesting part is the detonator - mixing chemicals after a membrane dissolves? Not precise timing, maybe good enough.

Or something far more sophisticated involving external electronics?

#3 terrorists carrying explosive devices implanted inside their bodies.

I note without comment that Islam's greatest contribution to civilization to date appears to be the ass-bomb.

#4 Back in the late 80s early 90s I played role playign games and one of the products I had was the Traveler 2300 Earth Cyberpunk sourcebook. In that little book was a story of terrorists surgically installing bombs into the abdomen of innocent people. So either Al Queda plays old role playing games or the idea has been around for a long time.

Embassies need a bomb proof waiting room and they need to invite suspicious looking people to wait within for a few hours. Oh, and they can communicate through skype while in there to get their business done.
