Suicide Attacker Blows Himself Up Near Mosque, No One but Attacker Killed

Feb 28, 2004

The Associated Press

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - A suspected suicide attacker blew himself up near a Shiite Muslim mosque in a city near the Pakistani capital on Saturday, Pakistani officials told The Associated Press. There were no apparent casualties other than the attacker, said Interior Ministry spokesman Abdur Rauf Chaudhry.

The attacker detonated his explosives near a crowded mosque where worshippers were marking the holiday of Muharram, he said.

Information Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed told AP that the situation was "under control."

Muharram is a month of mourning when Shiite Muslims recall the seventh-century death of Hussein, grandson of Islam's prophet, Muhammad.

I guess in this case you really could call him "suicide bomber" instead of what most of these whackjobs are: "homicide bomber."

I declare this man a model for all future bombers and hope they live up to his glorious example.

Let's hope that more of these idiots experience premature detonation.

Would 1 billion Muslims blowing themselves up cause radical climate change?

I have to disagree because of intent...he wanted to be a homicide bomber, but was to stupid. He would truly be a suicide bomber only if he did not want to or intend to kill others. He is an incompetent attempted homicide bomber.

Perhaps he thought that the Shiites needed some confetti for their celebration.

Actually, it's a time of mourning, not celebration. But they do make lots of noise in the streets, so he was able to add to that. Still, a bit premature......

That much raw, steaming sewage is bound to do something to the climate. I wonder how full the Grand Canyon would be with 1.2 billion of them bulldozed into it?

Reminds me of something a BATF agent said about a photo going around Seattle in the mid-70s showing the remains of a bomber who prematurely detonated a device he was shoving through a screen grill at a Safeway store

"It takes real guts to be a bomber"

Body gone from the waist up.
