The suicide bombers have nothing to do with "injustice" as you go on and on about. It has to do with hopelessness.

The two are not mutually exclusive, and in this case they both apply. Most people who feel hopeless don't become suicide bombers. Most people who feel they are being treated unjustly don't become suicide bombers. But combine the two and add some encouragement from the right people and you can get these bombers.

In any case the same applies to your Mexican bomber scenario. If they where full of hope they would not become suicide bombers. But you still support US military action in that hypothetical scenario.
