JayB Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 No virgins for him... "Glasgow terror suspect dies from burns By TARIQ PANJA, Associated Press Writer Thu Aug 2, 6:57 PM ET LONDON - A man critically burned after allegedly crashing an explosive-laden Jeep into Glasgow Airport died of his injuries Thursday, Strathclyde Police said. ADVERTISEMENT Kafeel Ahmed, 27, had been in the hospital for a month with burns from the alleged attack on June 30, which followed a day after two failed car bombings in London. The other man in the car, Iraqi doctor Bilal Abdullah, has been charged with conspiring to set off explosions. "We can confirm that the man seriously injured during the course of the incident at Glasgow Airport on Saturday June 30 has died in Glasgow Royal Infirmary," said a spokesman for Strathclyde Police, speaking on condition of anonymity in line with force policy. Ahmed, an Indian national from Bangalore, was burned on 90 percent of his body and had been in a coma throughout his hospital stay. He had been kept under armed guard at a burns unit." Quote
JayB Posted August 3, 2007 Author Posted August 3, 2007 "A man critically burned after allegedly crashing an explosive-laden Jeep into Glasgow Airport died of his injuries Thursday..." Maybe an expert on the relevant texts can chime and clarify whether or not setting oneself on fire and praising the appropriate diety at the top of one's lungs qualifies one for the 72 virgins, or if there's some kind of honorable mention for those that intend to slaughter as many civilians as possible by detonating themselves amongst them but don't actually succeed in doing so. If it turns out that Kafeel qualifies for the eternal shagfest in the sky for his efforts, the sincere pity that I feel for him will of course be terribly out of place. Quote
underworld Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 is it only if they are successful at killing hte infadels?? [virgins after death speculation thread/] Quote
lI1|1! Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 is it only if they are successful at killing hte infadels?? [virgins after death speculation thread/] good point. you probably only get virgins for killing people. Quote
JayB Posted August 3, 2007 Author Posted August 3, 2007 Not so sure about that. Of course, the true meaning of "Jihad" is a "peaceful inner struggle to improve onself," and Kafeel and a handful of others have woefully misunderstood both the spirit and the words contained within the texts that they believe have given them a divine mandate to shred as many Infidel commuters, club-goers, pre-schoolers, shoppers, etc as possible with a cocktail of nails, ball-bearings, and explosives - so perhaps the bar is a touch lower than you think. I can only imagine how upset he'll be after doing all of the plotting and setting himself on fire and whatnot only to find out that the dude chilling next to him got the three-score and twelve babes with nothing more than the "peaceful inner struggle" thing.

KaskadskyjKozak Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 wow, sucks for him. burns in this life... only to expire and jump into a lake of eternal fire Quote
fig8 Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 Wait a minute, I thought they were out of virgins anyway. Didn't that get reported in some Dutch paper a while back? I recall there being a bit of an uproar about it. Quote
Couloir Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 I think burning would be the worst way to die. Drowning, might cause panic at first, but not the pain that accompanies burning. Hopefully this cat was conscious enough over the last several days to really evaluate whether it was all worth it. Quote

Couloir Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 Good point. Or numerous lacerations would be tough. When I was a kid, a friend said, "how would you like to be sliding down the worlds longest handrail, and have it all of a sudden turn into a razor blade?" "Ahhh...no thanks." Quote
Cobra_Commander Posted August 3, 2007 Posted August 3, 2007 No one deserves to die slowly from burns, not even Stalin. Quote
