Ted, you exaggerate the situation. But then if you are looking at the thoughts of some of the people who would become suicide bombers, rather then the actual facts, then your post might be accurate.

It also servers the purpose I mentioned in my post. Looking at it from the radical Palestinian's viewpoint may help give you more understanding of the situation but it doesn't change the fact that the suicide bombers and those who lead them are terrorist murderers and should be treated as such. There is usually a cause that terrorist murderers fight for. But the tactic is unacceptable, and the cause it is used for doesn't change that even if it the situation really was the way the radical Palestinians portray it.

Tim

You live in one of those refugee camps. It's been over 70 years since your people were promised their own state; over 50 years since your family has lived in the same make shift camp where the walls are so thin you can hear your neighbors' bathing habits.

These people have had one opportunity after the other to "get" their own state. They prefer to continue with terrorism in their efforts to get more.

It seems obvious that a negotiated settlement is ultimately going to be required. But you don't/can't negotiate with terrorists. THEY ARE DOING THIS TO THEMSELVES.
