Real word for sucide bomber are brain washed. Most of them are trained in such a way that they live to die and take more lives.

If you really believe that killing those innocent people (as 11-s terrorist) you will go to paradise...yeah, they are quite cowards

By the way, I prefer "terrorist", "evil", stupid bastards...

I'm not saying that killing civilians isn't wrong, nor am I applauding people who do it. I'm just saying its understandable. Put yourself in their shoes for just a minute. Envision living in the scenario I described, which is probably about 25 times better than what happened to the Iraqis. What would you be doing? Cowering before the invading army hoping they don't "accidentally" shoot you or your family? Collaborating with the people who might've killed your friends or relatives, and totally upset your country? Or are you going to fight them every way you can?

mate no ones saying u agreed with it or not and i doubt anyone would deny your point of view. i'd be the 1st to take up arms if i needed to but the fact is that they willingly and knowingly kill INNOCENT people and as many as possible at that. do u honestly think u could stand in the middle of a group of men, women and children going about their daily business and push the button because you feel you've been wronged?

when u sign up for the army it becomes part of the day job, the threat, the danger. going shopping or getting on a bus on the other hand doesn't.

fight the real enemy.

I don't know if I could do it. I haven't been pushed that far and I pray to God I never am. Maybe instead of focussing all our hatred on the bomber, we should maybe look at what pushed him/her (or what they thought pushed them) to do it. I think the causes that drove a usually good person to such an act are more than worthy of a good share of the hatred we direct towards a suicide bombing.

I'd never join the military, because the enemy that the military fights usually isn't the "real" enemy. Sure, Al-Qaida's bad. Why do they hate us? Would their hate dry up if we removed American troops from foreign holy lands and had not butchered and starved the Iraqi people? The real enemy is the person who drives honest people to such desperation that they'd go to such lengths. Me, I prefer non-government-regulated citizen militias. A militia will never fight overseas for a worthless cause. They exist simply to defend the country against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

These people believe that they are going to be rewarded in death for these acts, which just confirms my beliefs that they are cowards looking for the easy way out.

Of course they would. They hate everyone who doesn't hold the same religious beliefs as they do. It all comes down to religion in the end.
