have no idea why you would think folks willing to kill themselves (or encountering others who want to kill them), while on a mission (a mission we don't approve of), aren't brave. I'm curious as to how far you are willing to take this. What about two armed robbers who shoot a bank guard in cold blood? Willing to face death (if caught) + on a mission we don't approve of = brave? How about about a husband who shoots his wife and one-year-old because he wants to date other women? (an actual case around here) Willing to face death (if caught) + on a mission we don't approve of = brave? Do you imagine I am the only one who thinks it would be an utter corruption of our language to label such deeds as "bravery?"
