Terrorists killed by their own device
TIKRIT, Iraq – Two terrorists were killed when an Improvised Explosive Device they were constructing detonated prematurely April 8.
The explosion occurred at a house in Baqubah shortly after 8 p.m.
Iraqi Soldiers and Police, along with Task Force Band of Brothers Soldiers from the 3rd Heavy Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, heard the explosion and quickly located the house. A search revealed weapons, IED components and other completed IEDs hidden in and around the house.
The munitions and IEDs were safely destroyed in a series of controlled detonations and the Baqubah police are investigating the incident.

Here's the latest "terrorists blow themselves up" story. I'd like to think that the U.S. military gave them some help.

I'm praying and hoping that the good guys have the technology to set off these explosives pre-maturely.
I can imagine a sweep-through, down the streets, with a secret device, which sends a signal and sends these killers to their early death.

Ditto.
But give them credit for testing their device for effect!
Maybe they were trying to put a warning label on the IED...

They forgot the first rule of bomb-making:
RED WIRE AND BLUE WIRE MUST NEVER SHAKE HANDS.

Premature detonation. They have medication for that.

I'm praying and hoping that the good guys have the technology to set off these explosives pre-maturely ....that technology has been around for years, the problem being it also renders alot of other electronics useless after wards...clocks, microwaves,radios,TV,cars,trucks,transformers,...BUT...latest is being tested and used, but word has it other countries are counter-measuring the latest
