I don't know about all of the people excited by martyrdom, but for the people who knew them it was sad. They were genuinely good people who were willing to risk their lives to help others. I actually know a lot of people that knew them and I was standing outside during the memorial service. The Christians I know reacted like you would think anyone else would, they miss their friends. It was a tragedy, so we mourn with each other and we try to help each other rebuild. Depending on your worldview, there's a lot of ways to rationalize what happened, whether you think it's just the way things are, or that there's some sort of a plan, or that human beings have a way of messing things up, but in the end we are just people who have to face the darkest side of what it means to be human. I think that is something we should all respect, because we've all been there.
