Daylight Savings Time As An Anti-Terrorist Tool

At The Corner, Mark Krikorian links to an article about the global attitude towards Daylight Savings Time, which concludes with this:
Back in 1999, terrorists on the daylight-saving West Bank built several time bombs, delivered to co-conspirators in Israel and scheduled to explode at a set time. Problem was, Israel had just switched back to standard time, so the only people injured were the terrorists themselves when the bomb detonated an hour earlier than they expected and killed them all.
