Richard, you're responding to fictions. Almost none of the Palestinian terrorists have acted as individuals. There have been a few individual stabbings, that's it.

The rest -- hundreds of attacks -- are military exercises. The suicide bombers don't act alone, any more than the kamikazes of WWII acted alone. They are trained and recruited and armed by Hamas or Islamic Jihad. Though lately, Fatah and Force 17 have been getting in on the act more and more. More than half the bombers and gunmen who've done mass shooting of civilians have been on Arafat's payroll as PA policemen, Fatah or Force 17 members. The rest have belonged to Hamas or Islamic Jihad.

Palestinian media (all PA controlled) have glorified suicide bombing as the most honorable of activities, excuse me, make that "heroic martyrdom operations" (which is what Al Jazeera calls them also, BTW).
