Suicide Bomber Instructor Accidentally Gives Live Demonstration
A suicide bomber instructor accidentally gives a live demonstration during his class killing 22 "students" at the ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria... not Archer's school... though wouldn't be far off given the accidents) training facility in Iraq.
Quote:
A group of Sunni militants attending a suicide bombing training class at a camp north of Baghdad were killed on Monday when their commander unwittingly conducted a demonstration with a belt that was packed with explosives, army and police officials said.
...
Twenty-two ISIS members were killed, and 15 were wounded, in the explosion at the camp, which is in a farming area in the northeastern province of Samara, according to the police and army officials. Stores of other explosive devices and heavy weapons were also kept there, the officials said.
Eight militants were arrested when they tried to escape, the officials said.
Not sure why you need live ammo in a demo. Especially in suicide bombing. But hey, happens to every army.
Actually the more I think about it, the more this sounds like western propaganda. Don't get me wrong, kinda happy if it's true. But there's no way you can dry run a suicide bombing.
There have been similar stories which turned out to be false. Even 'dumb terrorists' would probably not dry run a suicide bombing.
Live ammo? Hey sure, your shooting at something OVER THERE. But suicide? This is a weird story.
EDIT: Second view, definite twitter story picked up. Pics or it didn't happen.
Yeah sorry guys. The quotes are really unbelievable. Hey, happy if it happened, but dollars to donuts, it did not.

I probably shouldn't have laughed but that whole Achmed thing was the first thing that I thought of.
