Here is video of two terrorists in Afghanistan who appear to have accidently blown themselves up trying to dig up an IED they buried along a road. The video is from a U.S. Helicopter gunship that was ready to kill the terrorists, but were holding their fire because they did not want to harm a child who was in the vicinity of the terrorists. They watched them bury the IED in the road, and then for some reason, they started digging it up. Before the gunship could take any action, the IED detonated. . . (VIDEO)

I can’t believe they actually showed this on FNC this morning. It is a funny “Jackass” clip though. A lot funnier than the guy on a skateboard smashing his “family jewels” on the stairway railing.

Sucks to be them.
They were about to have the fire rain down on them and they took care of the job themselves.
Justice in action.

The rate of circle and he angle of the video suggests that the copter must have been close enough to be easily visible. How is it these idiots ignored it?

They were using one of Karl Rove's super quiet, invisible, black helicopters. Duh!!
