I suspect he was probably working for the Iranian government as part of a recent plan to target Israeli diplomats abroad. Now he's legless.

Iranian attacker blows off own legs, injures four in Bangkok

BANGKOK--An Iranian man carrying grenades blew off his own legs and wounded four civilians in a trio of blasts Tuesday in Bangkok, Thai authorities said. The explosions came a day after an Israeli diplomatic car was bombed in India — an attack Israel blamed on Iran.

“He tried to wave down a taxi, but he was covered in blood, and the driver refused to take him,” Pansiri said. He then threw an explosive at the taxi and began running.

Police who had been called to the area then tried to apprehend Moradi, who hurled a grenade to defend himself. “But somehow it bounced back” and blew off his legs, Pansiri said.

Well I think it's safe to say these guys aren't on the same level as the Mossad. They appear to be very inept.
