I agree with you Darksheare. If you want to terrorize a population that's the way you do it. That or instead of going for a single high profile target, you select totally random "everyday targets" in small towns and large cities. Malls, schools, peoples work places, you may only get a few people each time but if terror is your objective, then this is the way to get the people afraid to go to work, shop, send their kids to school, etc.

The secondary explosion tactic is old, used in WW II. Bomb an area and drop delayed fuze bombs to take out/disrupt rescue and emergency crews, we did it and so did the Germans.

Exactly why it works.
And exactly why it'd work here.

And so many people dismiss it offhand without so much as a thought.
Nevermind that the Pali's do it all the time.
