You make it appear as if Israel has never once had any intention to recognize a Palestinian state alongside the Jewish one in peace. Ergo, the "desperation and hopelessness" that leads to child-militants. But the fact is that Israel has offered to end the occupation, settlements, etc..... and recognize a Palestinian state.....well before there was an occupation and settlements (1937, 1948, 1965).

It's a hard sell you're making when you attempt to portray the Palestinians as a desperate people who have no other choice than to mass murder Jews. You make it appear as if 1967 is the basis for the I/P conflict when you know it's not.

What other desperate occupied people on the planet reject their own state multiple times because they want more than their own state (they want the destruction of the other country & mass murder of its people)?

Riddle us that one.

Seriously.
