Think about this McFly. There is no amount of mistreatment that will cause a parent to use their children as suicide bombers. They might charge the Jews (or whoever) head on and die leaving the children out of harms way but few would use the children as cannon fodder for a political or social cause. In Viet Nam when children were used it was usually not the parents using them and it was far more unusual than it is in the ME

Only religious zealots and psychotics offer their children up as human bombs.

To understand that zealotry is to understand that in spite of what wrongs they have endured, they are fundamentally committed to the destruction of the nearest group of non-muslims, whoever they may be.

It may be difficult for a person of western culture to get that but it is a fact.
