The WSJ guy got it wrong. I went to the youtube video, and it wasn’t jihadis planting a bomb, it was a group of Afghani volunteers trying to dismantle an IED ahead of the troops when it went off.

That doesn't make any sense - no one dismantles an IED by repeatedly tamping it down from all sides. They were trying to set it and hide it, not dismantle it.

“That doesn’t make any sense - no one dismantles an IED by repeatedly tamping it down from all sides.”

The audio on the video refers to them as “volunteers” and seems to go along with them being good guys. But as one guy on the video said, “Dude, I saw that coming a mile away.”
