If so, we should make sure that any such "obligation" is not honored, thereby ensuring that future suicide bombers won't be "bought" in this way.>>>>>>>>

I have also had such thoughts. EVERYONE that benefits from the attack should pay. I just think that it is so barbaric a thought

dbf,

Interesting thought. As cruel as it sounds, I think it is rational.

"..perhaps they accepted an offer from the terrorist bosses: perform such-and-such act, and we will provide $X to your family. Oh, and by the way, you'll end up in Paradise too (wink, wink)."

I am afraid that the offer could have some fine print:
"in case you disobey or fail the order, all your family
tree will be throat-cut and thrown to pigs, and
graves of your ancestors will be leveled"...

Just speculating, given the monstrosity of their acts...
