exactly, there are extremist in every culture and religion, take for instance those people that would blow up abortion clinic... those were AMERICAN citizens, Christian for that matter, I am Christian but i understand that they are not representative of me or what i believe in.

the problem is the perception is bad because generally you see these stories from certain cultures and religious factions
and i agree theres probably more to the story, but based on the facts so far at hand there is no way anyone could defend that husbands actions.
like i said, it's one thing if you have certain beliefs and you are willing to lay down your life for those beliefs ... but to force innocents or what appear to be innocents to kill themselves and other innocents for your beliefs ... wrong
some religions believe that it is their duty to take others lives to SAVE them from what they perceive as worse which would be living in this life.
