Only jihadi morons could think they’re the only ones who ever thought of using car bombs.

Exactly. They’re too goddamn stupid to figure it out on their own. The Soviets probably taught them how to do it at some point.

Car bombs have been in existence for nearly as long as the car. Suicide bombers as well. Bath School Bombings of 1927 About a half hour after the explosion, Kehoe drove up to the school and saw Superintendent Huyck. Kehoe summoned the superintendent over to his vehicle. According to one eyewitness, when Huyck drew close, Kehoe pulled out his rifle and fired into the back seat. Whether by gunshot or otherwise, the dynamite in the vehicle ignited and the resulting explosion killed Kehoe, the superintendent, Postmaster Glenn O. Smith, and Smith's father-in-law Nelson McFarren, a retired farmer.[16] Cleo Claton, an eight-year-old second grader, had wandered out of the collapsed school building and was killed by the shrapnel from the exploding vehicle. Several others were injured as the shrapnel flew through the crowd.
