The title and subject of this post are due to Stretch, my shooting teacher.
A would-be suicide bomber has accidentally blown himself up, killing six other militants as he was bidding them farewell to leave for his intended target, the Interior Ministry said.
“The terrorist was on his way to his destination and saying goodbye to his associates and then his suicide vest exploded,” a statement from the ministry said.
If you’re puzzled as to the reference, well, go here. (And really, if you’ve never seen Achmed the Dead Terrorist before, well… now you have.)
It’s really hard not to laugh at this story. But Reuters does manage to be the buzzkill with the rest of the article. (Don’t click the link.)
Kabul Karma.
