Umm hello? Haven't you heard of saints - aka people that died for Christianity? For instance St. Theodore of Amasea Surnamed Tyro was killed and arrested because he set fire to the temple of some Roman god and there are many saints like him. So yeah Christians do worship and venerate suicide terrorists a lot.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
