#3 suicide bombers used "explosives-laden" under-garments, briefs in particular

Boxers would be a dead give away because the ball bearings would rattle. Thongs and bras under development. That explains the law suits at Victoria Secrets, weak prototypes.

evade "conservative" body searches

They would never evade a bouncer at a bar in San Francisco's Castro District.

adding glass splinters, metal ball bearings and bullets

I bet that smarts when it goes off.

sharpening "Pre Bombing Investigation" techniques

That's the ticket, a poke in the privates with a sharp instrument.

#4 Cultural differences: In Vietnam, many Army aviators were known to sit on their flak jackets, while others went so far as to create various ingenious and bizarre looking armored jock-strap contraptions.

#5 "... or are you just glad to see me?"

Sorry, someone was going to say it - may as well be me.

#6 How about exploding Iron Jocks, a little plastique in the cup would do the trick. Easier to manufacture without having to fiddle with ball bearings ans broken glass.

Pack it in, strap it on, and your good to ~~blow~~ go.

#7 That's pretty rich, considering one of the lil' secrets of suicide bombers is that they go extra lenghts to "secure" their genitalia, wrapping them in cloth or aluminium foil so it can "enter" paradise undamaged, and they can use their precious pecker with the virgins. After all, isn't that the whole point of islamic martyrdom?

Incidentally, having the mortal coils of the main suspect (if foul play was indeed involved) found wearing multiple layers of underwear was one of the many suspicious facts about the 2001 AZF explosion, leading many and not only conspiracy theorists to believe this was the very first major terror incident right on the heels of 9/11... but the lid was put on it by both socialist PM jospin and president ben shiraq (and if the terror aspect is only plausible, the active involvement of both to make sure the terror option was NOT explored is well documented).
