I see your point, Raskolnikov, but I think your focus is off a bit. I don't for a minute believe that six people were trained and prepared for the suicide attacks on 11 September, {side note: only [u]six[/u] of the 19 identified terrorists left some form of 'goodbye'. Its reasonable to conclude that the rest were duped into thinking they were participating in a 'normal' hijacking!}, by the massive network the task required, over some percieved lack of sympathy.
This is a serious 'grudge match', and the players aren't people whose major stressors are lost keys, or kids missing the bus. There are grievances at issue here that run deep, and formed over a period of decades.
