Islamic State jihad suicide bombing teacher accidentally blows up his own class

Aug 11, 2014 8:07 am By Robert Spencer

isis+fightersThe good news, class, is that you will be dismissed early today. “Isis suicide bombing instructor blows up his own class by accident,” by Christopher Hooton, Belfast Telegraph, August 11, 2014 (thanks to Twostellas):

An Isis commander at a terrorist training camp north of Baghdad accidentally detonated a belt packed with explosives during a demonstration in front of a group militants on Monday, killing himself and 21 nearby trainees.

The accident was a source of dark humour for locals, with suicide attacks in public spaces having become an almost daily occurrence in Iraq.

A bomber struck a falafel shop near the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Baghdad last week, and when told of the bungled training demonstration by the New York Times, Raad Hashim, who works at a liquor store near the site of the bombing, burst out laughing.

“This is so funny,” he said. “It shows how stupid they are, those dogs and sons of dogs.”

On a more serious note, he added: “It also gives me pain, as I remember all the innocent people that were killed here.”

“This is God showing justice. This is God sending a message to the bad people and the criminals in the world, to tell them to stop the injustice and to bring peace. Evil will not win in the end. It’s always life that wins over death.

Another local told the newspaper: “I heard this today when my friend rang me in the afternoon to tell me about it. He was so happy as if he was getting married, which made me happy as well. In pictures: The rise of Isis

“I hope that their graves burn and all the rest of them burn as well. I was not happy with the number killed, though: I wanted more of them to die, as I remember my friend who was killed by a suicide bomber in 2007.”

A further 15 people were wounded in the explosion, according to police and army officials, which took place at a compound situated in the northeastern Salahuddin Province.

The instructor was not named, but was described to the NYT by an Iraqi Army officer as a prolific recruiter who was “able to kill the bad guys for once.”

      They’ll be disappointed. they thought they’d get their 72 virgins but all they’ve got is a bag of raisins to share.

    • ebonystone says

      The “72 virgins” bit is Allah’s little joke: there are only 72 virgins, total. The newcomer to Paradise has to wait his turn. At present the wait for the first night with one is 6231 years, 5 months.

      Thanks, tpellow, for this link —

      It is perfect to put in an email to every elected senator and representative ( state & federal ) of Jihadwatch readers here. I will do so, along with remarks :

      ” Dear —–,

      The conduct in this reportage is undertaken by fully-faithful Muslims, worshippers of their god, and followers in the life example of Muhammad, the ideal man of Islam.

      As I once believed, perhaps you still do, that essentially all “religions” are equally worthy of respect. Since 2010, five superb websites have helped me understand that is not true : http://www.jihadwatch.org / http://www.citizenwarrior.com / http://www.inquiryintoislam.com / http://www.thereligionofpeace.com / http://www.barenakedislam.com.

      Please take time to visit them. All those resources contain the scholarship of history, and events we see posted by international media.

      The dedicated people who run the websites would much rather be doing other things, I am certain, but in the interest of awakening millions of Americans to Islam’s true goal and essential beliefs, they have channeled much of their waking hours to that purpose.

      I suggest that you first visit http://www.jihadwatch.org, a blog of news and comment by Robert Spencer — author of 13 books, a former advisor to U.S. counter terror personnel. His long distinguished biography is available at the website.

      At the top of Jihadwatch is a link to “Islam 101”, authored by Gregory M. Davis. This is a solid undistracted hour’s read, yet worth every minute, and so full of specifics that I have revisited it often to fill in gaps not fully grasped by me during a first encounter.

      ******************
      [ AND SO FORTH ] I AM SURE JW READERS HERE CAN IMPROVE AND EXTEND THE TEXT ABOVE.

        Agreed! I subscribe to all of these sites.
        And for NI Catholics, there is no parallel between their struggle for civil rights and the Islamist movements in the Middle East. Hamas is not Republican and seeks the complete destruction of Israel. Palestinians were offered the same deal for an independent state at the same time Israel was back in 1948. They did not accept the deal back then and they have been rejecting peace ever since. There’s a lot of ignorance of the historical facts surrounding the Palestinian/Israeli conflict and I see much of it coming from Ireland.

    “The accident was a source of dark humour for locals…”

    Not just the locals! I think this is a classic ‘hoist with their own petard’ incident, and many people all over the world will find it amusing.

    Following reports that there is a shortage of virgins at the moment , Allah would like to assure his jihadists that he has the matter under control, he has managed to secure a contract with a Pakistani manufacturer who are working round the clock producing inflatable Muslim virgin dolls with large breasts and dark eyes, they have the added bonus in that they will blow themselves up, so its all good .

    I wonder if the survivors will learn from this lesson and each explode taking out another 21 jihadis when they recover? I could spiral into something big. Kind’ve like a muslim population explosion (ahem).

  27. pumbar says

    It could spiral (daft keyboard).

    Intelligence is non existent for these jihadis. I bet his last words were ‘now listen, never ever do what I,m about to show you’.

    Aug 12, 2014 at 2:41 am

    A few more teachers like this one would be a blessing. And while ISIS beheads children and stones women to death, and sets about annihilating whole groups of people, Belfast republicans are protesting against Israeli products. When are people going to connect the dots and recognize the genocidal aspirations of these terrorist affiliates? ISIS is Hamas in lower case letters.

    If the ‘commanders’ are so stupid we do not have much to worry about then.
    Of course all these guys dream of becoming martyrs he just got there earlier than most.
