SUICIDE BOMBERS AS AN ASYMMETRIC RESPONSE IN ARMED CONFLICT
Journal Title: Вісник Львівського університету - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue
Abstract
In this article, the author proposes his explanation of popularity among terrorist organizations usage of suicide bombers. The proposed explanation based on analysis of available research and statistical information in open databases. Author argues that suicide bombers are popular because they are an effective, relatively cheap and affordable weapon in conflict with a much better trained and armed opponent. This explanation allows avoiding existing contradictions in currently popular hypotheses about suicide bombers as a «response to occupation», «religious fanaticism» and «desperation of the oppressed».
