A suicide bomber in northern Iraq walked into a restaurant and detonated an explosives vest, killing at least three people and injuring 25 others on Saturday night, police said.
The incident occurred in Samarra in the predominantly Sunni province of Salaheddin. The popular, busy restaurant in the city center is frequented by Iraqi security forces and civilians.
It seems to me that the killer in cases like this kills only for the sake of Saddamists, for those who want to destabilize the country and topple the government. The suicide bomber must have been convinced that killing security forces who work for the new government will be rewarded by God, even if the victims are Sunni Arabs. How does one warp the Qur'an to convince Muslims to commit such murder?

Al-Qa3eda types operate under religious rules. If the islamic hukm is that someone is an apostate,
they will have no problem implementing the verdict of Allah 'azza wa jal.
You know that the universe compared to the footrest of Allah is the size of a ring compared to a desert,
and in turn a ring compared to a desert is the footrest compared to the Arsh (Throne).
So why shoudn't they act on commands with zeal, provided that the ruling is derived properly. They are not fighting for soccer like you.
But I'm not asking of you to subscribe to their ideology. Use common sense and non-religion to grasp my point: it's 100% insane to volunteer to die for Uncle Sam.
The intrinsic nature of man is *not* to volunteer to die for a third party.
If I were occupied tomorrow, convincing me NOT to volunteer to die for the occupier would be the easiest thing in the world.
So, Iraqis had to go out of their way, and invest special effort, in order to perform this sick abnormal behavior.
