What's the difference? The difference is that those guys are brainwashed by religion into believing there is a paradise of virgins awaiting them on the other side after they go boom and kill as many people as possible. Regular soldiers aren't being sent to their deaths and aren't sent to massacre innocents (speaking for the U.S. military at least) though there have been many transgressions over the years. They are sent to do a job and safely return. I'm assuming you have a low opinion of U.S. military interventionism. I assure you that I do as well, but comparing regular soldiers to terrorist bombers is despicable.
