DUBAI (Reuters) - Gunmen in Syria blew up their car on Sunday after clashing with security forces, Al Jazeera television said.

"After they were encircled, they blew up their car while they were inside," Al Jazeera correspondent Abdul Hamid Tewfic said. He said security forces estimated that there were three militants in the car in the northern city of Aleppo.

What I find most interesting is Reuters calls them "militants" while in Syria, however, these same terrorists are referred to as "insurgents" once drive their car bomb across the Iraqi border.

A good terrorist is a dead terrorist.

So if they blow up by accident or do not kill anyone, do they still get their 94 virgins?

Obviously, our forces in Iraq just need to equip the
drone aircraft with loud speaker systems. Every fifteen
minutes or so, a voice needs to boom, "Terrorists,
give yourselves up. You are surrounded". Satellite photos can record effectiveness by counting the number of exploding vehicles.

Assad wasn't pleased by the letter from Zawahiri to Zarqawi stating that they'd take over Syria after they were finished with Iraq...

Maybe they got a glimpse of the 72 virgins that looked remarkably similar to Helen Thomas.
