Dubai, 13 October (AKI) - Extremist websites have lauded Libyan immigrant Mohammed Game' s botched bombing of a military barracks in northern Italy - the country's first attempted suicide attack. Police have arrested two people suspected of helping Game in Monday's attack, in which he lost a hand, his eyesight and suffered injuries to his face. An Italian soldier was slightly injured in the attack.

"Well done, God will reward you," wrote a user of an Al-Qaeda linked website who called himself 'Abdelaziz the Algerian'.

"What great men are those who are accompanied by their God. Death to the tyrants!

"All believers and the people of Libya deserve a good man," he added.

Several extremist website users said they hoped that Game would be immediately released. One described himself as a follower of Sheikh al-Maqdisi, the Jordanian imam and teacher of Al-Qaeda in Iraq's late leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

"I call on God to heal our brother, restore his sight and free him from jail. O God - curse all the Arab tyrants and foreigners!" al-Maqdisi wrote.

"The Crusaders have killed our sisters," wrote 'al-Muhajir al-Falluji' in a lengthy statement that also prayed for Game's recovery.

Another website user, 'Abdel Rahman al-Nasir' wrote: "May God free you and release me from my own inactivity."

The Arabic media largely ignored Game's attempted bombing of Milan's 'Santa Barbara' barracks, in which he entered the barracks on foot and detonated rudimentary explosives reportedly made of solid nitrate.

Italian media reported an Egyptian and another Libyan were arrested by police on Tuesday after they questioned Game's friends and family members.

The detained Egyptian suspect, named as Abdel Hady Abdelaziz Mahmoud Kol, allegedly helped Game reach the barracks. The Libyan suspect, named as Mohamaed Imbaeya Israfel, allegedly helped Game obtain explosives

More than 100 kilogrammes of explosive materials including 40 kilogrammes of ammonium nitrate and other chemicals were seized at an apartment near Game's. He and Kol rented the apartment, which was in the same building as Israfel's, according to investigators.

The toolbox where Game hid the homemade bomb contained two more kilogrammes of explosives, and according to reports, it only partially detonated.

Italian authorities said if the entire load had detonated, there would definitely have been deaths.

Game's Italian partner and the mother of his three children, Giovanna, said she was "shocked" and would have never suspected he could carry out a terror attack.

Game underwent a second operation in a Milan hospital on Tuesday, where his condition was reported to be "critical".
