Security sources believe the new year's eve bomber and the airport bombers may have been members of a suicide squad trained in Pakistan's al-Qaeda strongholds which was sent to the Russian capital in December to target the city's transportation system.

Damn!

Funny as hell. That's as good as the suicide bomber who blew himself up prematurely because his bomb maker was in a different time zone. No virgins for you!

Nothing funnier than a murderer who manages to kill only himself/herself.

Nothing rarer than a murderer who manages to kill only himself/herself.

It's humorous, but it'd be funny if it was just a joke.
