Consider that the people who designed the occurences of 9/11 were not the ones to carry it out. *They* are the cowards. They hide in caves and sacrifice others (sometimes the very young) for their cause and their own safety. They have camps to train small children to grow up "martyrs". How else do you describe these actions but the actions of cowardice?

The word I want defined is "Martyr". Since when did a Martyr set out to kill *others* whilst taking their own life? The people martyred in history have been those who stuck to their beliefs and were killed for them. As far as I know, murder wasn't a qualifying characteristic.
