Also in cases of extreme terrorism the thought of martyrdom is quite an appealing thought.

Don't worry, the Americans are working on ways to execute people more than once. They already give multiple murderers multiple life sentences. Now they have to find a way of keeping them alive to serve the 300 years or so they have been sentenced to. There is always hanging, drawing, and quartering thing. That is pretty close to killing someone more than once. Much more fun to watch than reality tv.
