Maurice, I think you're twisting yourself into a pretzel to avoid the obvious interpretation, you love death better than life if you really, truly believe that you'll go to Paradise. The Islamist ideology is pitched to true believers. When you become a martyr, the Allah-promised day of victory for The Cause comes closer, and you collect the 70 black-eyed virgins in paradise. That's what I call a win-win situation -- if you really believe.

That slogan about loving death more than I love life has no meaning within it and if the words are logically followed, their continued existence for a second proves it false

Nah, suicide is strictly forbidden. Suicides go to Hell. You have to become a martyr to collect for sure, and get the bonus houris.
