ISLAMABAD, Oct 19 (Reuters) - An aide to Saudi-born militant Osama bin Laden has been killed in Afghanistan when a grenade exploded in his hands, and did not die in a U.S. bomb attack, the private Pakistan-based Afghan Islamic Press said on Friday.
Abu Baseer al-Masri, an Egyptian, died in a Jalalabad hospital on October 13, two days after a grenade that he was holding exploded, causing extensive arm and chest injuries, AIP said.
Earlier reports had said the aide to bin Laden was killed by U.S. bombing around the eastern city that is known as a centre for guerrilla training camps in Afghanistan.

LOL, it doesn't matter to me so long as he's dead. If he wasn't killed by one of our packages, then why did he get killed? He was too stupid to realize he had a live one? It makes you wonder- if he was killed playing with his own hand grenade... what was he fighting when he decided to get out a hand grenade? Or was he perhaps killed while attempting to collect on "America's Most Wanted?"

Sorry Abu Bozo, no virgins for you. The Providence of Allah Insurance Company only pays off in cases of martyrdom.

Something's being pulled here, and I don't think it's a grenade pin.

Hand cramps yea that's the ticket. I would guess he heard a screaming coming at him and then silence overhead in his final seconds.
