New millennium has brought with it the curse of suicide belt ...

Suicide , explosive or “shaheed” belt...

weighs about 5-20 kg

have explosives like TNT (TRI NITRO TOLUENE) and TATP ( ACETONE PEROXIDE) known as mother of satan because of its instability and high amount of enery released.

The explosive is surrounded by a fragmentation jacket that produces the shrapnel responsible for most of the bomb's lethality .

The most dangerous and the most widely used shrapnel are steel balls 3-7 mm in diameter. Other shrapnel material can be anything of suitable size and hardness, most often nails, screws, nuts, and thick wire. Shrapnel is responsible for about 90% of all casualties caused by this kind of device.

In the Press conference held by interior ministry, spokesperson MR CHEEMA said “ LET’S MAKE IT VERY CLEAR THERE IS NO WAY KNOWN TO DETECT OR STOP A SUICIDE BOMBER (WEARING SUICIDE BELT), JAMMERS CAN ONLY JAM A BOMB ACTIVATED THROUGH SIGNALS( REMOTE CONTROL) BUT SUCIDE BELT IS ACTIVATED MANUALLY”

IF the shrapnels are metal bearings, nuts, nails... obviously they are made up of iron ( as plastic, if used, wouldn’t be lethal and hardly injure any body)..
to my knowledge metal detectors are easily available in markets at least in dubai they are found in open market and their price depends on quality

so how come our army , intelligence or other agencies fail to detect suicide belt?

secondly.. there must be some preventive measures.. what are they?..from where they are getting explosives?

recent intelligence reports ( ISI and FBI) tells that 7 suicide bombers have successfully penetrated in islamabad and rawalpindi.. to complete few evil designs of zawahri... their target might be any shia alim’s rally during moharam or any political leader.....

i welcome your honest opinions, logical arguments and discussions
how to get rid of this curse and what are the possible preventive measures one can take to protect himself and surrounding
