There are so many easy ways to get rid of yourself w/o harming others. This just makes zero sense, other than as a terrorist act. Why isn't it being described as one?
What is the difference between this and a suicide bomber, other than (possible) lack of religious ideology? The result is exactly the same, i.e. random innocents killed intentionally and perp loses his life in the commission of the act. The bad guy's former profession isn't even relevant. Who gives a schit about him.
Too bad they published his name when they thought it was an accident.
