Maybe our communication is suffering due to a language barrier. Either that or you are trying to turn my words to your own use.
Let me explain. When a suicide bomber detonates explosives that are strapped to his body in the proximity of a group of civilians he has opted for an uncreative solution. He has also made a decision and acted on it. He is responsible for that decision and the ensuing action. By definition, suicide bombers have chosen to be uncreative and destructive and are, themselves, becoming part of the problem rather than part of the solution. If they choose to be uncreative by blowing themselves and others up, they are exercising 'no creative solution'.
This is not a logical springboard, except in your mind, to take your path to criticizing Israel. How in the world can you not see that Palestinian suicide bombers are responsible for their actions while Israelis are responsible for the actions of the Israelis?!
What you made no mention of was my criticism of Palestinians' refusal to take responsibility for their own actions. And your response shows that my most important message was completely lost on you. How can I tell? Your first response was to place the blame on Israel.
You just don't get it. There is no doubt that Israel has, and is, doing things to complicate the peace process. But that is what falls under their power to change.
Until Palestine cleans up its act and takes responsibility for its behavior, and until you catch on, it is pointless to take your continued complaints seriously.

'What all Palestinians want most of all is the right to have the basic American rights of LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS'

Would you please point out an Arab country where this is the case? The problem is that you can't. How many Arab countries have their own Palestinian camps and you think Jews who Palestinians have been killing should treat them better than their Muslim brothers. Of course this all goes back to the fact that Palestinians have never had a country. Other Arabs don't like Palestinians anymore than the Jews do and it will be a cold day in Saudi Arabia before anyone in the League of Arab States gives them any of their land.

Here is a list of the 22 members of the League of Arab States.
