Release A060507a

TIKRIT, Country – Two terrorists were killed May 6 near Tikrit when the improvised explosive device they were attempting to emplace detonated.

An explosive ordnance disposal team investigated the site of the explosion and determined that the two artillery shells that composed the bomb detonated while one of the men was placing it along the road, killing both men.

Evidence gathered by Iraqi police officers at the scene led them to the home of one of the bombers where the officers discovered equipment used to make the IED.

My thought is that there are a bunch of cell phone numbers being used by the bad guys. If the US simply had computers randomly dialing those numbers all the time and hanging up after the 1st ring, it would change the situation a bit.

Airport security decided scissors and nail clippers aren't worth bothering about on planes because they need more time and resources to look for IED's. (Should make your hair stand on end.)

Stuff like this will happen when you need an Electron Microscope to read the instruction manual. Especially the important part that says WARNING - Do NOT Shake.
