Speaking only of the young people who kill themselves and at the same time murder innocent bystanders, try for a moment to fathom the depth of the despair required to blow oneself up in the first place. All of the 9/11 attackers were generally from well-to-do families, and NOT products of despair.. In fact, Muhammed Atta came from a highly respectable family, and his father is a lawyer. What you're seeing in Palestine and much of the middle east are yound militant fanatics who have been brainwashed into believing that their lives should be sacrificed. I can think of any number of nations and people who have been occupied without sending their children out to blow themselves up while the adults cower in the shadows. One more point. Up until the first intifada (and even afterward), most of the Palestinian residents in the territories possessed a higher standard of living than many other Arab countries...
