But when there is a high death toll in a highly secure area, a suicide bomber makes much more sense.
It's not PC. It's being accurate. They are not suicides. Suicides kill themselves, its not about other people. It's about the person committing suicide. I could quote from my wife's DSM IV that I know have on my desk, but what's the point?

the point is that these Islamofacists are killers. They are commiting homicide. If they happen to die in the act that is just collateral damage. The intent of the act is to kill others. To say otherwise denigrates the memory of the innocent soldiers, men, women and children who are murdered in cold blood. Much like the Clintons' victims.
