This explains why so many people have such visceral emotional hysteria with the use of "courageous" or other related words when talking about 'suicide bombers'.... The genes are with us for thousands of years.... I've wondered what exactly the worlds people would do if any Christians, Jews, Buddists, or name others.....decided to go into heavily populated areas in the ME, or Indonesia, etc, and do the same things that have been done in the name of Jihad the last 75 years in the West.... Before the Romans, the Greek philosophers listed courage as one of the four cardinal virtues. And these cardinal virtues were to be unified or hinged together. Courage without justice or in pursuit of injustice wouldn't be virtuous or courageous. Another word should be used that doesn't have virtuous connotations
