At least he didn't have time to think about how much time he spent sweating his balls off in that thing for no loving reason.

Huh, I'd heard about that kind of IED but never seen one in the wild. At least if it was what I think it was. I think OPSEC Wizard (RIP in piss) would get pissed at me for explaining it though.

It went off a second or two after he dropped that pack next to it. I'm no EOD but he was trying to BIP it with a satchel? The drat thing was probably radio controlled. ADE 651 failed them

In Egypt, ADE 651 may be better as a magic device that cures HIV and Hep-C.

I don't know, I'm not even sure what it means besides a vague Han/Greedo reference and an implication to the idiocy of arguing that the cartoonists in any way deserved it, or could be reasonably expected to have known this was a consequence worth considering. If they'd hired a security guard or two after the fire bombing, for example, the body count would just be that much higher. Dudes weren't loving around.

They had upped their security measures after the firebombing. One of the cops killed was there as a security detail for the editor-in-chief.

These guys had actual training, not the regular terrorist morons. More guards would have definitely been killed as well.
