An Iranian man carrying explosives blew off his own legs and wounded four other people in two blasts Tuesday in Bangkok, Thai authorities said.Security forces found more explosives in the assailant’s rented house in the capital, but it was not known what targets they might have been meant for, Police Gen. Pansiri Prapawat said. One of the blasts in Bangkok damaged a taxi, and a grenade detonated as the assailant carried it down a sidewalk outside a Thai school, said Col. Warawut Taweechaikarn, a senior police officer in the district.Photos of the wounded Iranian man showed him covered in dark soot on a sidewalk outside the school strewn with broken glass. A dark satchel nearby was investigated by a bomb disposal unit.Pansiri said a passport found at the scene indicated the man was Saeid Moradi from Iran. Authorities in Tehran could not immediately be reached for comment.Three Thai men and one Thai woman were brought to Kluaynamthai Hospital for treatment of injuries, Suwinai Busarakamwong, a doctor there, said.A third blast occurred inside a rented house on the same road, busy with businesses and apartment blocks, but it injured no one.
Why is he blowing up Bangkok for? I can't think of any good reason to attack that hellhole. Assuming of course this is due to Islamic extremism and not some personal vengance gone wrong.
That may be the single gayest thing I have ever read on this board. Or the old one.
Wow he failed at suicide bombing.

The target was likely the Israeli embassy there.Aside from that, this guy is going to prison forever. It doesn't matter what his lawyers say, he doesn't have a leg to stand on.
