Do Jewish kids attend 'concentration camp' youth camps?

Post by _Boaz & Lidia »

To help galvanize the faith of Jewish kids and help them understand what their ancestors went through at the hands of Nazi Germany during the holocaust, do their parents encourage them to attend summer camps where they get rounded up by soldiers, ride in railroad cattle cars, forced into work camps with little food, forced to be shaved and shower in dark waterless showers, and then lay inside of a brick cremation oven and stare up at the blue sky through a soot covered chimney?

Just curious.

Runtu's blog post, The Day They Killed My Son’s Testimony made me wonder if other faiths, with real persecution in their past, make their youth do the same types of camps relating to their past persecution..

There is no comparison between the Mormon pioneer trek and the Jewish Holocaust. Mormons may have been persecuted, but they were not systematically mass murdered by an entire nation. Furthermore, most of the Mormon trek hardships were from nature, not man.
That's General Leo. He could be my friend if he weren't my enemy.

Wow, I never realized it was sooo bad for the poor picked on persecuted Mormon pioneers! The whole earth hated them, even mother earth herself, to place God's only chosen people in such peril!
