It is beyond my understanding. But they must really believe in "the cause", whatever it is.

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???

The Sunnis had it good under Saddam. They don't expect to have it so good under the Shia. And they would be right.

I agree.......the violence is horrific and stupid. But you have to remember that violence begets violence.
