I wonder if someone was trying to do him in, or if he was on his way to blow something (or someone) else up, and the bomb went off prematurely?

On CNN, this was described as a car bomb in a Hassidic neighborhood.

Sh*t.

That was a clean blast. Looked like a very well controlled one, lending credance to the Italian angle as oppose to the jihad angle.

>Last week's news: KNIFE THUG KILLS HASID IN BROOKLYN

This is unpleasant. Two incidents in two weeks.

I hope somebody is working hard behind the scenes to deal with this...
