Militants accidentally set off own car bomb at training camp in Iraq, leaving 21 dead

BAGHDAD – Militants accidentally set off their own car bomb Monday at a training camp in the countryside north of Baghdad, leaving 21 dead and resulting in two dozen arrests, Iraqi officials said.

In the city of Mosul to the north, meanwhile, the speaker of parliament — one of the most prominent Sunni officials in Iraq — escaped unhurt from a roadside bomb attack on his motorcade.

I think I can safely say that THIS is exactly the kind of car bomb that we can all support. "Here, Achmed, you have to hook up the blue wire over he- NOT THE RED [BOOOOOOM]"

Heh.

But wait, it gets better. The explosion alerted the good guys, who swooped in, captured a bunch of insurgents, and shut down a facility where they made car bombs to kill innocent people.

TO RECAP:

• 21 Dead tangos.
• 22 Tangos in custody.
• One car bomb making facility shut down.

Damn, but that's a good day right there...

That is all.
