Bionic Terrorist

Michael Yon describes a gripping scenario as the vehicle he is riding within approaches a massive IED buried in the highway. Michael tells of the deranged would-be bomber that is captured to live another day despite the best efforts of the insurgents to send him to Allah. Kind of like the dogs I and the LA Times wrote about.

The Bionic Terrorist seems mentally disturbed. He's poxied with panic, his face contorted by abject terror. Clearly, he is deranged, possibly explaining his prodigious running ability. The enemy is known to use and discard mentally-challenged persons. The poor guy probably doesn't even know what language we speak.
