The suicide bomber represent a tiny percentage of the people in the middle east. Most of them don't like what is going on any more than any of us would.
I don't know why it is so hard for people to understand that everybody in Iraq is not trying to blow themselves up. The typical Iraqi is not violent, he is not anti-American and he is not anti-Christian. These people are suffering because of the actions of a comparative few. Why do so many people hate them?

Islam ...or more accurately...the old Iraqi clerics preach martyrdom is the key to instant paradise....much more then the average poor Iraqi has on this earth.
Also..many of them...hell maybe all of them hate the Jews, Americans, British...anyone who has the freedoms they have been denied and refused.
I lived and worked in Iraq for 18 months...saw the after math of IED's VBIEDs & suicide bombers and never ever understood.
Of course you never see the 50-70 year old Islamic holy men blowing themselves up.Don't they want to get to paradise and the 70 virgins?

They seem to be brainwashed as was the storm troopers of Hitler in the second world war. The Iraqis, mostly young, are religious nuts that believe that to die killing their enemy will get them great rewards, ie. virgins etc. and all it gets them is dead with a lot of innocent people with them. As with the Japanese in WWII, desperation and the thoughts and beliefs, many a person has died in the name of religion. Look at the Crusades in the middle ages. Most all wars has been fought in the name of some religeon. How many atheists have done the same? Who really knows why these people do this. Crazed religious people.

You know when you've lost you family, your friends, your relatives, in fact everybody you know in bomb attacks; your life has no more sense and when this to small children, they are recruited to form part of these types of armies. They are told that they have to take a revenge.
But it does not mean it's acceptable. It is even horrible how humans can be so rude and cruel.
Hope my answer has answered your question!

The koran teaches them to love death more than life. They are fooled into thinking God will reward them for murdering innocent people.

.They do this probably because they are oprressed by the dominating power right now that puts all the values and make all the decisions,leaving no space for fighting for their rights,vito in the UN,simply ignoring UN, and imposing what they want by army which is now found everywhere

They do have a love for the mistraslation of virgins for grapes. They are dying for grapes! They are training their children and children's children to attack any infidel. So what do you do? It wasn't so long ago that the Viet Namese were sending their babies out with diaper bombs!

I think they do just as much as any one else. But with the tragedies they have faced for decades they may feel they don't have much left to lose.

They think they are doing Allah's will.
They think , they're going to get 72 virgins to rape and beat senseless.
Hey, bombers!
Allah ran out of virgins 2yrs. ago, blow yourself up now and you get 3 , 60 yr. old lesbians.
