opposite side timer is started.
With a white noise jammer, no signal gets through anymore, 30 seconds
later you get *bang*...

But that is not a system that you would want to use for real, any kind of
failure or signal interuption would cause a detonation.

Providing they kill someone they do not care. Terrorist organisations
have repeatedly show that they consider local civilians to be targets.
Western soldiers are just higher valuse targets.

Actually, a paper I read points out to the fanatic of any stripe, it's
the act, not the result that's important. If I get killed before I can
kill the enemy, that's unfortunate, but I 'm still a hero/martyr since
I died in the attempt.
