Or whatever is left once the religion of pieces is through with them. In what must be the apotheosis of Newspeak, Reuters describes a chap as a suspected suicide bomber even though he "actually blew himself up."

A suspected suicide bomber blew himself up after police shot dead another overnight during a chase in a Casablanca slum, Moroccan police sources and witnesses said on Tuesday.
