#NotAllMuslims Blow Hole In Jet With Suicide Bomb, Fail To Kill Anybody But The Bomber

Font Size:

You heard about the Somalian jet that somebody tried to take down with a suicide bomb, right? Scary story, but it’s got a really happy ending.

Meg Wagner, NYDN:

A suicide bomber strapped into a wheelchair may have been behind the mid-flight explosion on board a Somalian plane, a Western diplomat said…

The blast — which went off just minutes after the flight took off from Mogadishu’s airport Tuesday — blew a hole in the cabin and ejected the alleged bomber, sending him plummeting to the ground below…

Local authorities north of Mogadishu said the body of a man — believed to have been sucked out through the hole in the fuselage made by the blast — was found in their area.

In the words of one of the greatest philosophers of our time:

Dude, you don’t get your 72 virgins unless you kill other people too. What a loser!

I hope this piece of garbage didn’t die right away. I hope he had a moment to think about his life before he got turned into an extra-large pizza with spokes sticking out of it. I hope he noticed the big hole in the jet, and then noticed that he was the only one falling. I hope he said, “Whoops!”

That’s not what happened, of course. But it sure is fun to think about! 🙂
