Ain't it weird that there are always older, 'wise' men who make young people to sacrifise their lifes for the things the old people seem important?
Not only in Afghanistan that is...

That was indeed the one thing I asked some of those youngsters aka terrorists. And it always made them doubt. You could see them thinking "yeah, why me, why not the old man?" !!

But aren't our own presidents not also old men, asking the younger guys to fight 'for your country'...?

someone has to fight in a country, unless it is full of pussies. suicide bombing is not fighting.

Suicide bombing is not fighting... ?
I don't have an opinion on this one!
The bomber is surely fihgting his will to survive. And he is not a coward... Or is he? I don't know..
