...this doesn't fit the typical pattern of a homicide bomber .. they seem to like to be in the middle of a crowd, and when the explosives go off, it's so vastThe explosive most often used is TATP (Triacetone Triperoxide) and it is extremely sensitive to impact, friction, even temperature change (called "Mother of Satan" because of its tendency to detonate prematurely). This bomber might have been using the bathroom as a staging area and accidently bumped his belt against the sink or wall.
Here is a great link for understanding this explosive... Global Security - TATP

Perhaps you can tell us
how many 'suicide' bombers in Israel
have exploded prematurely?
Quite a few, it seems to me.
