A pair of suicide bombers struck
<http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/02/04/AR200802040
0648.html?hpid=sec-world> in the Israeli town of Dimona yesterday -- the
first strike of its kind in more than a
<http://www.guardian.co.uk/israel/Story/0,,2252619,00.html> year.  Once it
was all over, a bomb disposal robot removed one of the attacker's jacket, to
make sure there were no more explosives on him.  (His bomb failed to go off,
and police shot and killed him.) Then the machine rolled over him, to
double-check.  The likely

There's something else odd about this picture.  Look at the end of the
robot's arm: Is that a weapon I see?

UPDATE: Sam Jaffe write in to say that the weapon on the robot "fires a
metal slug into explosive material. I've seen video of it being used on a
carbomb at the height of the 2nd intifada. If it works, the robot gives up
the ghost -- Israel's version of suicide bombers."  He also points us to
some NSFW video of the  <http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/951124.html>
bomber getting shot, and  <http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/951124.html>
an interesting story about
<http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/951381.html> the shooter, Kobi Mor, and
his unit.

for determining whether the use of a work in any particular case qualifies

criteria to qualify as an instance of "fair use". Rather, "fair use" is
determined by the overall extent to which the cited work does or does not
substantially satisfy the criteria in their totality. If you wish to use
