That's what they believe.

Whenever you hear the news of a suicide bomber quite often little or no details are given regarding the bomber except sometimes whether it was a male or female and country of origin if that.
We are not filled in with personal details of what kind of person he/she was but there is little doubt that it is usually a Muslim and no I don't think they are representative of Muslims in general even though the Muslim community with few exceptions has been silent on the issue.
For all we know it could be a Christian extremist but we never really know.
Whether it's their religion as you say who knows but the fact that most commit the act while screaming that "God is great" might have an inkling to do with it?

It would appear the suicide bombers are given religious reasons to blow themselves up. These are certain harsh verses in the Koran (eg Sura/chapter 9), which more moderate muslims don't interpret so literally. Also some of the traditions of Mohammed - hadith - are pretty violent (one of them is about someone dying in war for Islam getting loads of virgins in heaven as a reward, whether it is one universally accepted or not by muslims I don't know).
Suicide bombing is not really part of Western culture, and never has been as far as I know (some anarchists, who had a political belief that there should no governments killed leaders by bombing them, and did knowing they would be shot as a result, thats the nearest equivalent behaviour), and it does seem a repulsive idea.

The only REAL benefit to a Muslim/suicide bombing is that WE don't have to worry about burying THEM after the blast!

Some people find it easy to generalize. Sometimes they do not even realize that they are doing it.
They may use terms like "why do they always say".
Terms like "all of them", "always", "never", are often used when they are not appropriate.
All of "them" are not alike. No matter who we mean.

Because it's easier to be glib than actually understand their religion.
