A terrorist suicide bomb teacher in Iraq at a training camp outside of Baghdad decided to make his lessons as realistic as possible. He conducted his class using a suicide belt filled with live explosives.

The result was pregnant with schadenfreude.

New York Times:

In what represented a cautionary tale for terrorist teachers, and a cause of dark humor for ordinary Iraqis, a commander at a secluded terrorist training camp north of Baghdad unwittingly used a belt packed with explosives while conducting a demonstration early Monday for a group of militants, killing himself and 21 other members of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, army and police officials said.

Iraqi citizens have long been accustomed to daily attacks on public markets, mosques, funerals and even children's soccer games, so they saw the story of the fumbling militants as a dark - and delicious - kind of poetic justice, especially coming amid a protracted surge of violence led by the terrorist group, including a rise in suicide bombings.

Just last week a suicide bomber struck a popular falafel shop near the Ministry of Foreign Affairs here, killing several people. On Monday evening Raad Hashim, working the counter at a liquor store near the site of the attack, burst out laughing when he heard the news.

"This is so funny," Mr. Hashim said. "It shows how stupid they are, those dogs and sons of dogs."

More seriously, he said, "it also gives me pain, as I remember all the innocent people that were killed here."

"This is God showing justice," Mr. Hashim continued. "This is God sending a message to the bad people and the criminals in the world, to tell them to stop the injustice and to bring peace. Evil will not win in the end. It's always life that wins over death."

Another resident of the area, who lives near the ministry building that was targeted last week, said: "I heard this today when my friend rang me in the afternoon to tell me about it. He was so happy as if he was getting married.

"Which made me happy as well," the resident said. "I hope that their graves burn and all the rest of them burn as well. I was not happy with the number killed, though: I wanted more of them to die, as I remember my friend who was killed by a suicide bomber in 2007."

The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria is so violent and so indiscriminate in its murder that the parent AQ organization in Pakistan has disavowed the group. They are murdering the leaders of other Islamist groups in Syria, as well as more secular leaders from the Free Syrian Army and other opposition organizations.

Scratch 21 potential terrorist attacks in Iraq. Unfortunately, there are a lot more where they came from.
