If at the beginning, I also thought it was a matter of religious fanaticism that drove the suicide bombers, I'm not that convinced by this, now.
There was a woman who did it too, though she had no religious influence; another one also said she did it on her own.
They do the math and see what's going on - their reasoning could be so:
previous suicide bombers hurt Israel really deeply;
they know that just like everybody else, they'll die one day anyway;
Is it worth going on living in humiliation and not try to contribute to force Israel to give us our land and dignity back?
Israel uses force, so we have to do the same as it's the only language they seem to understand.
A bit more of religious fanaticism helps, of course, but it doesn't explain everything.
