Spam Text Prematurely Blows Up Suicide Bomber

Posted by samzenpus on Friday January 28, 2011 @03:55AM from the spam-redeems-itself dept.

Hugh Pickens writes "A suicide bomber's plan to detonate explosives in Central Moscow on New Year's Eve was foiled when she received an unexpected spam text message that caused her deadly payload to blow up too early. A message wishing her a happy new year came hours before the unnamed woman was to set off her suicide belt near Red Square, an act of terrorism that could have killed hundreds of people. Islamist terrorists in Russia often use mobile phones as detonators. The bomber's handler, who is usually watching his charge, sends the bomber a text message to set off the explosive belt at the moment when it is thought they can inflict maximum casualties."

Because Islam burns people as witches.
Abuses underage boys and cover it up
Burn people for saying that the earth goes around the sun
Torture people to make them admit they're jews, then execute them.
Oh wait, wrong religion. Sorry. Carry on.
