Suicide attacks are not really part of the culture of the Western world. Fanatical muslims REALLY want to die for their religion.

Americans are willing to die for their country (and this has been proven throught out the history of the country)...and may be even as fanatical about their country as the muslims are about their religion.
The Japanese were just as fanatical as the muslims and just as willing to die and we obliged them.
In addition some US military operations have been deemed "sucide missions" and the boys did their duty. There have been military units ordered to stand and fight knowing that they would be overwhelmed...and they stood and fought.
