this is what I am understanding from your statement: Israel and the western world have moral standards because they follow judeo/christian values. but on the other side of the coin,for most palestinians(excluding the fanatic suicide bombers), their Islamic faith is what gives them their moral standard(some palestinians are also christians). yes, I will say that Israelis and palestinians have equal moral standards. to suggest that one nations(peoples) moral standards are lower(or higher) than some other nations of this planet is outright arrogance. If someone suggested to me that India(a nation with a civilization that goes back to more than 5,000 years of human history, and the country my family came from) have moral standards that are not on the same level as some other nations, i would argue with that individual until I prove them wrong.
