Default Suicide Bomb Teams Sent to U.S., Europe

Per ABC news...

"Large teams of newly trained suicide bombers are being sent to the United States and Europe, according to evidence contained on a new videotape obtained by the Blotter on ABCNews.com"

Maybe they can have an opening ceremony of some type for the different "teams" of suicide bombers - dividing them up by sponsoring nations. After the opening ceremonies, they can be put through all kinds of different events and tests of skill - blowing themselves up in cafes, malls and 7-11's filled with crash test dummies (not the band, but maybe their CDs).

After the events they can be awarded metals posthumously, both as individuals and as a team. Any closing ceremonies will be kind of quiet.

My money's on Pakistan. They're a dark horse team - well financed, good facilities and well rounded in both the car, group and individual events. Everyone will be looking to the Syrians or Hamas, but I think they may be overrated this year.

(Sorry, I just took a bunch of nighttime allergy medicine and I know this absurdist post is not funny to anyone else. And, no, I'm not fishing for a, "no, it's kinda funny" response.)

I thought it was funny, but I'm a sick, twisted individual.

You could call it the Explodympics.

Thanks.

I like your idea for the name.

Some of these guys just lack an outlet for their creativity. If we can channel it into an event where they can show it off - and make it so they can only hurt themselves (not unlike Dancing with the Stars) - we’ll all be the better for it.

Fear is a marketable commodity these days. Bush knows this better than anyone.
