[[uh-ohhh...I am not sure these guys will be getting their 72 virgins.....]] ATTACKERS ARE KILLED IN BOOBY-TRAP BID BLUNDER BUNGLING Taliban fanatics have blown themselves to pieces trying to set a booby-trap near a British base in the Afghan desert. Little was left of the threeman terror cell after the huge blast near Camp Price. Marines from J Company, 4 2 Commando, are among 250 British troops at the base. Commanding officer Major Ewen Murchison, from Bearsden, Glasgow, said: "It was what we would describe as an own-goal." The Taliban were trying to lay a massive anti-tank mine, which dated back to the Russian occupation 20 years ago. The blast could be heard over a mile away back at Camp Price. The accident has delighted the marines and their Afghan National Army allies, who could also have been victims. dailyrecord.co.uk
