Some people become suicide bombers becuase they feel that is the only solution to a problem which seems never-ending. I guess for someone like this journalist, he's in no position where people will actually genuinely stop and listen to him (he may get his voice heard on television, but will people relaly take in what he's saying?) so that was for him the best option. I don't know, to be honest most journalists in Qatar seem to think that was quite amusing and we'll all be using that method to shut up people who rant on too much at press conferences....
