So do I, it's an environmentally friendlier way to deliver bombs, think of the fuel savings as opposed to a helicopter or B52s which require enormous ammounts of expensive tech stuff and years of crew training all to arrive at the same product, terrorism!
Yeah that's exactly what's going through allah-hala-oopdity-bah's head when he sets off his suicide vest on a bush full of school kids. "I do this for mother nature". Please.
How desperate does one have to be to commit suicide by explosives in order to kill other people?
Or how religiously brain washed? Truth be told, suicide bombings serve no purpose other than to harm. Blowing ones self up on a bus full of innocents doesn't further your cause, in fact it works against any form of political recognition. A marked fact is that the people who show up to "devote themselves to Allah" are some of the most socially and ignorant people their nations produce. People who've bought in to religion in every aspect. Ever see the 60 minutes piece on the suicide bombers whose vests didn't go off? Those people are right out of their gourds.
And Juan is correct, a person has to be extremely desperate to become a sucicide bomber.
Desperate for what? More like religiously blinded. We have tons of desperate people on Western society. Homeless, people living with terminal illness, yet they don't strap on a bomb and blow themselves up in a crowded market do they? You cannot make the mistake that these people are desperate, they're not. They're religious idealists that use violence to try and bend the will of good people. Do don't see some Christian strapping on a kilo of C-4 and some det-cord and blowing himself up at West Edmonton Mall, and that's because he
ISN'T Islamic. Now don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with Islam in and of itself. There is however a problem with radical clerics who bend the minds of young people to blow themselves up in the name of an ideal that completely contradicts the religion they "follow". No, suicide bombers are not desperate, and they don't deserve any respect. They blows themselves up because they're too big of cowards to fight conventionally, and the vast majority of the time their victims are their fellow countrymen and women.
The point is that the Japanese did not begin the war with suicide tactics it was only done at the end.
Might want to go back and take a history class there bud. The Japanese employed kamikaze pilots at Pearl Harbour, the first day of the Japanese War against the U.S. In fact the USS Arizona was sunk partly due to a suicide bomber that crashed his Nakaijma dive-bomber in to the bridge after dropping his payload.
