Hypothetical question

[Jon Miller]

would there ever be a situation where you would be a "suicide bomber"?

JM
("suicide bomber" means make an attack that will cost your own life, that might not be at all successful, that might hurt those you consider innocent, that is against those who consider themselves noncombatants)
(muslim suicide bombers routinely bomb in situations where other good muslims could be injured)

[Jon Miller]

um.. change the

(that are taking place today) to (that might be taking place today)

It'd have to be something personal rather than ideological.

[Bill3000]

Agreed. Ideology is not worth losing one's life.

[alva]

It may be worth losing your own, not killing another.

[Gangerolf]

no

but that's probably what that belgian chick said too, before she became an islamaniac.

you never know...

In case someone wants to become a suicide bomber, make sure you don't get it twisted.

Personally, I'm immortal, so being a suicide bomber is technically impossible to me.

I don't like to say "never", so option 2.

The basic fact that you shy away from such absolutes says to me that you would never be a suicide bomber. But you're a commie, so you hate freedom and America, thus you are a terrorist and we must bomb you. Sorry, Spiff.

It's easy to find something worth dying for. Do you have anything worth living for?

I wouldn't be a suicide bomber, but I'd throw myself in front of a car (or whatever) if it would save friends and family.

Flip, trite and b0llocks!

[Immortal Wombat]

If I did, it would be the bomb that was the afterthought, not the suicide.

Only if the target is makers of "certain" polls
