It's like a child holding his breath until he gets what he wants. But neither method works. When the child holds his breath long enough, he passes out and then he breathes. The terrorist stops eating until he dies. So the problem is solved either way in both situations.

Ok #1 it's not only terrorist's that do that
#2 It is to prove a point that you are willing to starve yourself for your own belief. If you do die then the person who was disagreeing has to deal the fact that is was their fault who made the people starve themselfs.

Ghandi did a hunger strike, so did Bobby Sands...
the point is to rally some sympathy for them. Johnny Public says, "the government isn't that mean, they won't actually let them die." so the public pressures the government to give in.

Yeah, I don't really see the point in a hunger strike. Do they hope someone will feel sorry for them and give in to their demands or what?

No one that I know. But then, I don't know that many people. They can all starve as far as I am concerned.
