Watching their friends being publicly hanged would be a much better deterrent.
Why yes that makes perfect sense... afterall 'martyring' terrorists willing to kill themselves would really teach them

Anyways it definitely didn't work with the Irish republicans since all it did was create martyrs or heroes - heroes still lauded or sung about in pubs today. Killing people ready to die for a cause is self-defeating since they and their supporters accept and expect it really... locking them up is a greater punishment really, and a greater political and intelligence asset than a dead 'martyr'.
