Terrorism Intelligence

terrorism has been growing for years
one year before nine eleven
Iraqi terrorist Khay Rahnajet
mailed a letter bomb
but didn’t use enough postage

his letter bomb came back to him
marked “return to sender”

Khay Rahnajet opened the letter bomb,
blowing himself up in the process
