Suicide Terrorism plays major roles in devastating and destructing cities and their

people while communities try to fight the Global War on Terrorism. The devastation and

destruction can either be focused on individuals or a certain infrastructure. There are two

tactics of executing the acts of suicide terrorism; strapping explosives to their bodies and

or steering some sort of transportation into a place of gathering. The methodology of this

study is an auto-ethnography.

The auto-ethnography is designed to find understanding of personal experiences

using a qualitative method of study. Understanding the motives and mindset of suicide

terrorist can be very complex. In the study, variables of political, educational, family moral

and beliefs, and religion are all researched comparing to the personal experiences of what

drives an individual to carry out such acts of violence. Conclusive research shows all four

variables play particular roles in certain suicide terrorist acts, and some drive these actions

more than others.
