No... I never said suicide bombings are propaganda. Why do you even suggest that?
Suicide bombers act to have maximum effect. They are no different to others who lay mines, booby-traps, spray chemicals in areas, lay IED's at roadsides or bomb areas with napalm. There is no more or less morality in any of that - they all kill.
You are correct - rarely is there any nation who is spotless on human rights (tho a rare few are). It is not about "how spotless" my human rights record is - "mine" is spotless - but history leaves much to be desired. And yes, I have felt the heat from a "terrorist" bomb.
The issue is more about now and current day and understanding the underlying core issue, and, possibly if that is understood - action can be taken to minimize the damage on both sides. Until this is done - there is nothing constructive that will happen to resolve conflict. To continue accepting propaganda and not addressing the core problem is pointless.
