they are used as detonators for remote-controlled bombs... set the timer (alarm or stop watch feature) on the cellphone or simply dial the cell phone connected to the bomb and boom the bomb goes off.
But why won't just one do? It seems they need many with which to build a new one that is something rather special.
There is way too many of these reports happening. I'm wondering if the terrorists are planning a day when they set hundreds of bombs off at once in a dramatic effort to terrorize us.
Is this how Ahmadinejad wants to start the war with us?
There will have to be a time when Islam is so thoroughly destroyed it will never consider jihad again.
