Suicide Bomber Kills at Least 106 in Iraq

This is what I find really incomprehensible about the insurgency in Iraq. Where do these people who are so willing to kill themselves (for what, a return to Baathist rule?) come from???

I can sort of understand a suicide bomber in the Israel-Palestine situation. Some subset of Palestinian kids have grown up in occupied territory his entire life, seen their family killed by Israelis and their homes bulldozed by Israelis, encountered discrimination and humiliation at the hands of the Israeli military, and got indoctrinated for years by the organized hate monger groups in Palestine. I'm not saying the Palestinian suicide bomber has any legitimacy, but at least what produces him is a bit more obvious.

But the Iraqi suicide bomber - where does he come from? What makes a kid decide to kill himself and other Muslim Iraqis?
