i would say that religion is motivating that...not common sense. get rid of the religion card and then they are just revolutionaries. it's a lot easier to systematically kill revolutionaries who want to kill us than it is to tip-toe around all of the religious bullshit and worry about hurting everyone's feelings.

Yes you are right a lot of wars are religious or land motivated, but you have some fanatic who is teaching others to follow that specific religion who thinks it is good to go out and blow people up. There are a lot of elderly or sick people who believe in religion because it is a comfort for them before they die and to take religion away from humans would be a disaster, I still think religion has a part to play in any society and i dont knock people for what they believe in, even if you took religion away from suicide bombers they would still find some other excuse or motivation to go out and blow somebody up.
