I don’t get how you can profile based on the use of ball bearings.
It’s the same premise as Claymore mines. If you want to cause large amounts of maiming besides the blast, you add things that will turn into shrapnel.
All it proves is somebody is really sick and wanted to kill and incapacitate as many people as possible.

I agree, ball bearings come from rotating equipment and that is a rarity in Afghanistan. You just don’t use ball bearings unless they’re plentifull. Now, buckshot would be a different matter.
In WWII we sent B-17s just to demolish Hitler’s ballbearing manufacturing plants, that’s how important they are.
Even in the US, ballbearings are not easy to come by unless you visit a dump and go looking for them.
