What a sad story this is: a happy Shi'ite nuclear family enjoying a quiet evening of bombmaking in their modest suburban home, when it all goes tragically, tragically wrong. Premature Detonation Alert from Lebanon: "Two Killed in Explosion in Southern Beirut," from [1] Reuters, April 5 (thanks to Bill):

BEIRUT (Reuters) - Two people were killed when a man accidentally detonated a bomb in his southern Beirut home on Tuesday, a security source said. The source said Ali Jaber, a member of the Shi'ite party Amal, and his wife were killed in the explosion in the southern suburb of the Lebanese capital. Their son was also wounded.
