There are a lot of countries with a lot fewer problems who have suicide rates higher then Israel, I am surprised that it isn't higher considering all the violence committed against Israel, and it's citizens, the worst part is the suicide bombings and rocket attacks, they are initiated by the Palestinians, who then have the luxsury of anticipating the Israel responce, th eIsraelis never know when a attack is going to take place.
