He did it as a way to commit suicide and still "get into Heaven." The cure for this is cruel but simple: Take ahold of the body part that Muslims think with, and lop that part off the surviving jihadi. Sex change all surviving suicide attackers and other jihadi, and they will hesitate at the thought of being forever barred from Heaven instead of getting an automatic free pass to it.
Funny story. Back in 2006 in Ghazni, I called in one of our our terps to talk about something. When he stopped in, I "just happened" to be reloading some of my magazines. As I spoke with him, I continued loading mags. I also "just happened" to have a pork MRE open on the table, with the label in plain sight. The whole time I was speaking to him, I was carefully rubbing each bullet around in the pork before loading the cartridge in the mag. I never said anything about what I was doing or why, but I could see him looking and knew that he got it. When I was finished talking to him I sent him on his way, knowing that by the end of the day the story that the Americans were dipping their bullets in pig fat would be all over the province.
(Then I unloaded the mag and wiped that shit off. Not going to take a chance on a malf just to make a point to some goat-fuckers.)
I absolutely love that story. You were probably OK as far as misfires are concerned, but that's how you get ants!
Or worse, mice. Which are then followed by the snakes. Like saw-tailed vipers.
