Finally, an Islamic fanatic does the USA a favor...

Good news out of Iraq:

It seems a suicide bomb instructor wasn't quite up to snuff on his bomb vest safety measures and he triggered the bomb in front of a class of would-be suicide bombers that had joined the group Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

Key quote:

----------------------------------------
Twenty-two ISIS members were killed, and 15 were wounded, in the explosion at the camp, which is in a farming area in the northeastern province of Samara, according to the police and army officials. Stores of other explosive devices and heavy weapons were also kept there, the officials said.
Eight militants were arrested when they tried to escape, the officials said.
The militant who was conducting the training was not identified by name, but he was described by an Iraqi Army officer as a prolific recruiter who was “able to kill the bad guys for once.”
-----------------------------------------

Here's hoping it keeps happening.

LOL...even if it isn't true, you spread many stories like this and you might have a hard time finding recruits!
They all should take then on a test run to be sure they worked.
Ya gotta love it.

Although a great story, it is not unknown for bombers to accidentally blow themselves up.

Okay! Here is the idea! We will do a Fast and Furious on terrorism. We will send out our on bombers who will teacher their students to blow themselves up. We will teach them to build very sophiciated bombs but at the last second we have them cut the red wire instead of the green wire. They'll never figure it out.

are they still 72 virgin eligible?
Let's see 38 bombers x 72 each= 2736 virgins needed.

Those virgins are for martyrs only. They get nothing.
They were wannabe martyrs give 'em wannabe virgins.
