101. So much to cover
Again, you said, "people can have a moral upbringing and still end up not opposing the actions of suicide bombers." I take that to be an absolute impossibility. There is nothing moral in what they do. There is nothing moral in finding morality in it.

I do not defend Israel no matter what. I also don't trust the wildly biased world much of which wants to destroy Israel. I put everything in context. Israel is a nation fighting for survival beset by enemies, many of whom commit monstrous acts almost unheard of in human memory.

Not everything Israel does is right, though much of it is caused by those that oppose it. Is it right to shoot teens throwing rocks? In many cases, no. Is it understandable? In most cases, yes.

Take a look at the list of things I would do to cut down on violence in the U.S. if you think I am not liberal enough for ya.
