Every thing I say on here is an IMO. But hey, isnt that what a message board is for? [img]smile.gif[/img]
1)Do I think she would still bring her child up as a suicde bomber?...Yes.
2)All people - may it be in the US in Europe or in Afghanistan - are looking for a purpose in their life.....No....people in third world countries are looking for food not purpose. (Afghanistan example)
3)The main problem is that there is so little choice for people in the poor countries and that martyrdom seems the easy way out....No...martyrdom is not an "easy way out",they arent killing themselves because of a jilted love or they owe a bookie ten thousand dollars. Its a belief that their dying will better thier cause (whatever that cause may be). THIS is their life purpose that you keep refering to.
4)People still bear hatred and with some it would overcome their joy of a better life. But it would be on the decrease and people would stop to bring up their children with the hatred they now have no more use for decreasing the problem further....again I disagree ... The people that still bear the hatred would continue to launch attacks against thier enemies---> therefore...there would (in the Isreali/Palistinian conflict) continually be counter attacks---> therefore... it will only perpetuate the hatred that has been going on for generations.
The western world has been trying to wipe out predjudice and hatred against blacks, asians, Pakistanis, etc..for longer than my lifetime and we live in a more "fortunate" part of the world with a "better life". If we cant do it here what makes you think they can do it there when thier Hatred runs deep enough that they will sacrifice their own children in the name of thier cause? A better lifestyle will not solve any problems. IMO
