Someone has posted a gallery of suicide bombs – mainly jackets but there’s also a suitcase in there.
It’s pretty grim, especially as London has been a victim of this kind of attack. But I think it’s quite interesting to see the technology behind these things.
It’s just a shame that tallented indivuduals put their efforts into building items like this that cause such mindless distruction.
I wouldn’t say they are talented or there is a great deal of technology accociated with them. Anyone with a brain wouldn’t strap a bomb to themselves anyway.
I can’t believe you wrote that.
Forget “the technology behind these things” because as soon you think that’s even remotely interesting you’ve lost sight of the reason these things are built. Namely to cause the death of innocent people. End of story.
Talented Individuals ? Interesting ?
Take a look at http://www.ogrish.com/archives/2005/july/ogrish-dot-com-israel_suicide_bombing_aftermath4.jpg and tell me thats the work of anyone talented or interesting.
Crude pipe bombs with nails attached with some wire and a push button switch is NOT talented.
Why the use of the word “talented”, because clearly you have to know what you are doing to build one of these things.
Are the people who build nuclear bombs not talented? (where do do you think the term “you don’t have to be a rocket scientist…” originates from?) They cause just as much, well, probably more destruction than a sucicide bomber.
In both cases, I think its sad, disappointing and despicable that people put their efforts into building these things (be they suicide bombs or nuclear bombs – I hate both). I wish people put their efforts and skills to positive use.
I also acknowledge people’s dismay at this post – but please separate this into it’s relevant parts. I am only referring to the technical work that has gone into this, not the use of it.
I don’t think people who *BUILD* nuclear bombs are hugely talented. In fact I suspect a lot of the process is automated and done by machines.
I think the people who split the atom and developed the “idea” of nuclear technology are *VERY* talented.
Splitting hairs AND atoms… 🙂
This High Pitched Noise Hurts My ear!!?This High Pitched Noise Hurts My ear!!?Okay So I was playing guiar through my amp and I was listening through it with my over the ear headphones and while I was playing the chord fell out from my guitar, and my ear was blasted with a high pitched nose, I instantly threw the headphones off my ear, and I had a Temporary hearing loss, It felt like i was in shell shock, in my ears like after an explosion, everything sound muffled for like a couple seconds then, I had like tinnitus for seconds (a ringing noise in my hear) then my hearing went back to normal. Will my hearing be fine, I’m going to keep stuff on low volume to help my ears recover..
I was looking at some of your posts on this internet site and I think this internet site is very instructive! Continue posting .
