Talibunies ask for Divine intervention to get Cellphone Bomb to work- Denied - Video
2008-05-08
Some Taliban Jamoccas try to target US convoy vehicles with a cellphone actuated RCIED. You can here them wearing out the send button. Even after asking for Allan's help nothing happens. Those dastardly infidels are using jamming devices.

Please step to the back of the Paradise ticket line. Next!

#6  For some reason, that photo reminds me of an angry toy poodle my cat used to terrify.

#5  The problem with IEDs that go boom with a signal loss is that the "loss" can be triggered from several hundred yards in front of a convoy. You get the boom, but you don't get any casualties.

Could make acivating them tricky, if their cellphone service is at all spotty (doesn't that describe pretty much all cell phone service?)

#1  While cell phone jammers are useful against some IEDs, many current designs are trigged by signal-loss.

That being said , haha .
