Excerpt -

CHICHAWATNI, Pakistan, Feb 24 (Reuters) - Three suspected Pakistani militants were blown to pieces by their explosives on Saturday when they rode over a bump on a bicycle outside a town in the central province of Punjab, police said.

"The head of one man has been blown off," Deputy Superintendent Bashir Ahmed told Reuters from Chichawatni, a town some 120 km (75 miles) north of Multan, the main city in southern Punjab.

Another of the dead men had his legs blown off, while the third had his stomach ripped open and died later in hospital, police said.

At least two of the dead men were students at a nearby madrasa, suspected of having links to Sipah-e-Sahaba Pakistan, a banned Sunni Muslim sectarian group, according to Ahmed.

I know that I shouldn't be gloating about the deaths of these people, but it's such poetic justice that I can't stop myself.

Most folks would find it unbelievable or evil, to learn how gratifing it is for some folks to see their enemy dead sprawled out to their front.....or experiencing their smelling corpses ripen in the following days wet heat..

It is a horrifing experience to see your first maggot infested corpse. Later, after realizing the alternative would be much worse -- you give thanks in prayer and celebrate the fact it was the enemy dieing and not you or your brothers.

Semper Fi
