Interesting, although there are two things missing. First, "jihad" means striving. It is often used in the context of this article, but it also means striving in general, like striving to make yourself a better person, etc.

Second, I really don't know where the whole suicide bombing thing began, maybe invented by some fanatical, egotistic mullah with a God (Allah?) complex and political power goals. Mohammad preferred all-out open war on the battlefield during his jihad. The ones who went to heaven, the "martyrs," were the ones who fought on the battlefield with honor against a like opponent. From my understanding of the Quran, these suicide bombers are going to Muslim hell for the murder of innocents.

It's been preached and taught for some time.

Welcome back from wherever you've been.
