Suicide bombing: deliberate detonation of explosive to kill oneself.

We're not saying conspiracy theory IS "ideology," right?? :p It does all tie into anti-govt. sentiment & we know that the ideology doesn't have to be coherent or factual or well-developed.

*I know that because of the blatant double standards against Muslims, "terrorism" as a label doesn't come easy when the perpetrator is White. However, rushing to apply the term where it's not so clear, doesn't help either. Fact is, sometimes the neat&tidy labels don't fit.
