#1 grinned as he delivered his devastating payload

I'm sure this will be repaid in kind. In fact, I'll be grinning every time an M1A1 lets off a round or two in Fallujah.

#2 Caucasian eh? Probably a person disillusioned by the election results here in the US. Wouldn't be suprised to find out this suicide bomber is a AL-Guardian reader from France or Britain.

#3 If they're British then we should adopt the Israeli approach and demolish their family's homes and deport them. Bastards.

#4 Does seem likely to me that they'd have chosen a Brit to attack the British troops, if there was one available. As a whitey, he would probably be an individual convert to the religion of peace; the usual screwed-up criminal loner type. If so, his folks probably wouldn't have had anything to do with it. Better to evict his recruiters and deport or incarcerate them.

#5 I may have to stay off RB today - after a morning of listening to Beeb news I'm on the verge of having an anyeurism or taking a weapon into the streets. Bastards.

Bastards.

The terrorists, or the Beeb?

#7 #6 Any similarity between beeb and terrs is NOT coincidental. Both.

Let's keep this in perspective: Abu Ghraib.

All you panty waist libs need to do an A-B comparison between a grinning suicide bomber and a naked guy. The naked guy will forget about his day of humiliation and live his life. The grinning bastard will have taken life.

Are you reading this NYT? A thirty-two day straight run of front page stories about a handful of malcontents with no adult supervision? Get a fucking grip.

#10 God I'm pissed at the NYT. Their lack of perspective is shocking.

#11 Charles -- possibly Chechen.

#12 The NYT does NOT lack perspective -- it's just a perspective that has little relationship to the facts and threats and American mainstream. It's the U.S. version of the BBC.

#13 Do not forget that Iranians are Caucasions as are Chechnyans. Clean 'em up and put them in western clothes and you'd be hard pressed to tell either from an Eastern or Southern European.

If he truly was a Brit I would think he could have done far more damage.

Bury his remains in pig guts and maxi pads and let the others Jihadists contemplate eternity denied the virgins.

#14 GB, for a little perspective on the NYT's perspective, remember that they completely missed the Holocaust during WWII.

#15 The problem is not the bombs, or the smiles, it's the cars! Once the Black Watch realize that all vehicles must be stopped... back at a distance, and the occupants made to get out with their hands in the air fingers spread, this type of intrusion will always 'catch' them. Stop everything larger than a rolling can of beans, if it don't, blow it up in place!!
