Bloody macho wishful thinking.
That idea that they are told they will see 40 virgins is not very accurate actually. If they were told such it would be directly contradictory to the kuran. In a very blatant way that most Muslims would find as blasphemy. I find that either there is the small chance that a few are willing to believe that, or it was bullshit made up by the press, or misinterpretations of something said, or one nut balls proclamation. Most terrorists have more advanced reasoning then that, I would suspect.
