Bomb-laden car blows up in Afghanistan, kills suspected terrorists

(Kabul, Afghanistan-AP) -- Authorities say two terrorists were planning an attack when their car blew up in eastern Afghanistan. The Toyota Corolla was packed with explosives.

There was little left of the car, and body parts were scattered around the charred wreckage.

A government spokesman says it's clear the suspects were planning an attack, but did not say what the target may have been.

Last month, four men were killed when their car, also carrying explosives, blew up in a similar fashion.

The area is known as a hot-bed of activity for rebels thought to belong to the ousted Taliban regime or affiliated with al-Qaida.

Looks like the Varsity and JV are mostly eliminated and they are down to the Freshman and Junior High teams.

Kids, don't try this at home!

Since they were the only ones killed, does this disqualify them from getting the virgins?

I think the pressure on them is too much. Under such horrendous, strain they are making mistakes.

We need to elect a Democratic President in 2004 to give these people a little peace so they can pull themselves together.

I like this. If terrorists just blew each other up (and themselves) instead of innocents, that would be terrific! I'm all for that kind of terrorist tactic.

Ping. Looks like either some more terrorists aren't following OSHA guidelines...or they have a "performance problem" (ahem).

Terrorists! Are you suffering from the embarrassment of premature detonation? Is this common problem causing you serious problems in your relationships with the 72 virgins? Call our clinic today for confidential help!

Tough call... :)

If it was radio-controlled, I wonder if Demo Dick Marcinko had anything to do with it...

And don't pet your camel before getting back in the car.
