re: Their parents will be less likely to discourage them from becoming "martyrs," and the "martyrs" will have the added motivation of supporting their families with the reward money.

So yes, they do indeed do it for the money, among other things.

Crap. The vast majority are from the "middle class". Much better educated than the mean. That's the suicide bomber demographic. They do it for principle, not for money. It's their only effective weapon against their oppressors and occupiers.

Imagine what it must be like to make that sacrifice for a principle...
