What I dont get is-- 6 or 7 bombs went off, right? How in the fuck can only 33 have been killed? The bombs went off on packed tubes and packed double decker busses
Must have been some pretty shit bombers or explosives for such a low body count in such a packed area
When they say 37 dead and 700 injured, they aren't saying what those injuries are. As the Israelis know, many of the injured are people barely surving after being sliced open, having limbs sliced off, or other unthinkable "injuries."
Suicide bombing isn't about murdering people, it's about making sure people survive after suffering injuries most people would not want to live with. It's about putting fear into people.
Also, they are probably counting the bombers among the dead.

Doing the 9/11 damage and then stooping to a relatively small stunt in comparison like this just doesnt seem right. Surely they would have gone larger in order to spread their "message" if it really was them. Suicide bombers just doesnt seem right to me either, plausible, but just not right
Like I said above, the bombings are about fear and suffering. And they can be very effective. Does it make sense? Not to us. It's senseless acts of horror. But that's the point.
