The Japanese were more fanatically suicidal than the Muslims, and when their cause was hopeless, most of them stopped.

Of course their cause is hopeless. Even you cannot think that the suicide bombers among the Palestinians are making it any more likely that Israel will cease to exist, and concede all of "Palestine" to Arabs. Even you cannot think that Osama is any closer to defeating the Great Satan and rallying the Muslim world to eschew modernization in favor of Shari'ah states. Terrorism is influential on the margins, it has not achieved any major aim, and, in fact, has been counter- productive.
