STOP SUICIDE BOMBINGS

Pakistan is not only among the countries with the highest incidence of terrorism but it also tops the list of suicide bombings, leaving Afghanistan and Iraq behind during the first three months of 2008. Average deaths reported during 2008 in Iraq were 21 people contrary to 14 people in Pakistan. According to analysts the attacks carried out in Pakistan were more lethal in nature as they were planned to assault security personnel. Mostly security agencies were the prime target for the attackers during 2007 and 2008 as more than 65 percent security personnel's deaths were reported.

While reviewing the world history, it appears that terrorists groups are capable of carrying out bold and destructive acts that at first glance appear to be unexplainable. What kind of person would sacrifice his or her own life in order to kill innocent people? What could possibly motivate a young person to become a suicide bomber?

In the wake of many tragic events, it can be difficult to analyze objectively the causes and processes leading up to them. For many, understanding the motives behind suicide bombing comes dangerously close to excusing or approving it. It may seem easier just to assume that the people involved are "evildoers" or "callous fanatics delighting in the carnage they have created."

Terrorism is not a simple phenomenon with easy explanations; usually there are wide variety of motives and causal factors involved in it. Terrorists tend to have considerable insight into their own actions and are aware of how others view them. They believe that their violent actions, while somewhat regrettable, are justified and noble. Often their actions do not ultimately stem from hatred, but rather from love of their own group and culture that they believe is threatened and requires protection.

Those who train suicide bombers brainwash them to the utmost extend and they start believing that God has sent them on a mission. They are motivated primarily by the promise of a happy afterlife and heavenly reward and the threat of heavenly retribution their rationale is that by blowing themselves up in a crowd of people, they are making themselves martyrs and forging their own gateway to heaven. Many of these individuals are indoctrinated at an early age about the spiritual importance of purifying the world and sacrificing their lives to a holy war. In some cases, enemy countries and their agencies use the concepts of benevolence, self-sacrifice, and martyrdom to spread the idea that suicide bombing is a noble and Godly act.

Many terrorist organizations also offer economic incentives to persuade individuals that it is rational to sacrifice their lives for the good of the cause. For those who believe they lack options, cannot find a job, and have few social safety nets in place to assist them, suicide bombing may seem like a relatively reasonable option. Families of suicide bombers often receive money and are treated as heroes. Once individuals join organizations that share their frustrations, they may undergo a process of indoctrination whereby their beliefs and behaviors are made to conform the group's basic principles. Within these tight-knit communities, individuals' fear of letting down their comrades becomes greater than their fear of dying. Many come to believe that by sacrificing their own lives for the sake of the cause, those lives can take on a broader meaning.

Various grievances and social stressors can also contribute to turn a person into a suicide bomber. For example, poverty, unemployment, epidemics, and criminality often lead to social instability, which provides fertile ground for terrorist activity. Over-population, socioeconomic struggle, and a lack of professional opportunities can also produce a sense of rage, powerlessness, and resentment among the populace. Moreover, indoctrination of young minds can also play an important role in conversion of an ordinary person into a suicide bomber.

The detained terrorists in the custody of Pakistani authorities have also accepted the fact that they got indoctrination, support and lethal ammunition in Afghanistan. The main role in preparation and brainwashing young boys as suicide bombers has been played by secret operatives of Indian agencies in AFGHNAISTAN. The destabilization of Pakistan is in the interest of India therefore it has maintained training camps inside Afghanistan with the consent and support of some culprit Afghan officials.
The outcome of their game plan is constantly rising number of suicide bombing in Pakistan. The poor souls are completely unaware of the reality that they are in fact serving for the enemies of Islam and Pakistan. These misled people are completely brainwashed and they find suicide bombings as an easy way of entering into heaven.
