    Blundering Afghan suicide bomber blows up 6 militants

    KABUL, March 26 (Reuters) - A would-be suicide bomber accidentally blew himself up on Thursday, 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 good-bye to his associates and then his suicide vest exploded," a statement from the ministry said.

    Taliban-led attacks in Afghanistan have escalated in the past year with suicide and roadside bombings insurgents' weapons of choice.

    The incident happened in Helmand province in southern Afghanistan where mainly British troops are struggling against a growing Taliban-led insurgency.

    In a separate incident in Helmand, nine policemen were killed when Taliban insurgents attacked a police post in Nari Sarraj district, the Interior Ministry said.

    Elsewhere, four Taliban insurgents were killed and seven policemen and two civilians wounded during a battle just outside Ghazni city, about 200 km (125 miles) southwest of the capital Kabul, a spokesman for the provincial governor said.

    On Friday, Washington is set to unveil a review of its strategy in Afghanistan, which is expected to emphasise the need to expand Afghan security forces and strengthen the country's heavily aid-dependent economy.

    Islam is a religion/culture on the move. It are going to make some noise in the next 50-100 years. And Europe, Russia, and North America better be wary.

    More on this some other time. time for bed.

    The funny thing is, these select Islamic extremist make "Hardcore conservatives" in the U.S. look like 18 yr old s in Mexico during Spring Break.

    Enjoy the imaginary friendship while it lasts LOL

    Keep an eye on how CAIR uses this weakness the liberals push through, to use the system to take out those who speak out against them.

    Heh, it's not like a suicide vest is a precision weapon.

    This will happen when you have crude, "home-made" explosive devices used by semi-trained zealots.

    Oddly enough the islamic extremists have more in common with christian fundies than most would think in terms of world view and hatred of liberal democracy.
