The sentence doesn't mean he'll kill himself first and then us, of course. He has to be willing to kill himself, then he'll be willing to kill us. First he'll kill us, and then he'll himself. What are his intentions?

That's how I see this "will x 2" sentence.

However, I don't often, if at all, think of or hear "will x 2" sentences.

I think that they do not appear much in AE.

Anyway, here's a song:


Singing I will if you will, so will I;

Singing I will if you will, so will I;

Singing I will if you will,

I will if you will,

I will if you will, so will I.
