It depends on the definition of "failure"

A headline from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation:

"Failed suicide attack claims six Palestinian lives"

No Jews were killed, but four of the dead guys were trying to commit suicide. They shouldn't be written off as a total failure.

hehehe.. good point. the title of the article isn't accurate. It wasn't a complete failure. They are dead and no longer a threat to Israel. If only more of the terrorists would kill only themselves.

Calling these attacks "suicide" is a misnomer. They should be called mass-murder or genocide attacks. Then this event would be a "failure" instead of a success.

What you should understand is that for ABC it was a failure as no Joooos were killed.

All 6 slain, the murders and the civilians they killed... will all go on the Media "tally" to convey a "balance" against Israel.
