Why don't terrorists target only other terrorists?

That would be like a sniper targeting only other snipers.
They don't care WHOM they shoot. They're pissed off at the world, and are taking it out on anyone at hand.

@Callmyname Yes. I understand. In real life, you haven't done anything to them, personal or not. But that's not where they're coming from. Terrorists are on a mission. And if you're in their line of fire, they'll do what they need to to run over you. They don't care. It's their psychopathy.

The point of terrorism is to scare the general population into thinking that something bad can happen to anyone at any time. If the point was to take your gun and us humans for target practice, they could just shoot each other. That isn't the idea - you're angry at the world so the world has to know.

In inner cities you do have cases of criminals shooting other criminals and we don't hear about it.

@Callmyname I don't read Chicago papers so I can't say what the day-to-day coverage is. In the national news we hear about Chicago murder rates because it flies in the face of their strict gun control laws. We in Boston do hear about fires, robberies and other events. Shootings that don't involve gangs and things do get coverage usually. The gang stuff just doesn't get talked about.

With Islamic terrorist, their actions fuel islamicphobia, so countries like the US would show hatred to the Islamic people. If Islamic countries are being attacked by military strikes killing innocent people, they begin to hate those who lead the military strikes, and if those Islamic people are told "come join us, we're getting back at the people who attacked us" and that's a terrorist organization, the terrorists gain power. Terrorists want people to hate them

Why don't suicide bombers or murder-suicide perpetrators just skip right to the suicide?

They don't know who it is. This is kind of what civilized countries are trying to do, but you see it's not very effective so they often turn to bombing.

@Callmyname You said other terrorists, which indicates two different kinds of terrorists.

If you're seriously asking why terrorists aren't killing themselves then you're quite annoying.
