Workplace violence Only if the perp yelled "Allahu Akhbar!" immediately before the explosion.
If he yelled "Oh sh..." then it was an Islamophobic hate crime.

Just call him lefty. If he blew his right hand off it still wouldn't wash with other Muslims. They justify collateral damage as being good if it's done in the name of jihad but there's some things even they won't try to justify. Losing a right hand for any reason is considered a judgment from Allah calling them a thief, ho matter how it happened.

I wonder what was the last thing that went through his mind?

Thanks Olog-hai.

"Separately", yeah, that would definitely be the word to use. "The suspect's name is Muhmood, but he goes by 'Lefty'."

One of the few times that “hoisted on his petard” is literal.

I remember it. Frank Sinatra did a single of it. A goofy little ditty about an ant and a rubber tree plant as I recall.

While making a bomb?
No, he blew himself up AFTER making a bomb.
Otherwise it wasn’t a bomb it wasn’t a bomb yet.
He was a success, at making a bomb anyway.

Correct sir! I was waiting to see if anyone had corrected this misusage. “Workplace accident” is definitely the accepted term used here years ago when there was a spate of these incidents in Pali mosques in Gaza, IIRC.
