Of course it's different. However, being a suicide bomber is a lot more complicated than jumping off of a building- it requires lots of training... also, think about the kind of brainwashing needed to convince one to kill someone else while killing himself instead of just shooting himself in the head. That person needs to be convinced that he's doing it for a good cause.

Z, with teenagers, particularly teenage boys, it doesn't take much. Its sad how easily they can be coerced into believing something that's evil by playing to their upcoming manhood or their religious beliefs.

With guys in their 20's and 30's, I think it's a different story....it takes some intense fervor like religion or patriotism for them to go for it.
