During the Summer, when I was a kid, my parents sent me to various Orthodox Jewish summer camps. I spent time in Camp Massad, Hi-Li, and Morasha. My daughters also attended Morasha for quite a few summers. We made new friends, played baseball, basketball, and went swimming twice a day. We also studied Torah, and Shabbat was a wonderful communal experience. Summer was a care-free celebration of our American-Jewish identity.
I was never, ever on a winning team.
Anyhoo.
Kids in Gaza also go to Summer camp, but sports have been replaced with terrorist training and Jew-hating indoctrination. Their summer experience is a celebration of genocidal jihad against the Jewish State, and no doubt, all non-Muslims.
Make no mistake about it, in Gaza and under the PA in Judea and Samaria, children are systematically programmed to believe that they are eternal victims and their sacred duty as Muslims is to kill Jews.
This is one of the reasons Seraphic Secret maintains that the so-called peace process is nothing more than Kabuki theater, programmed by credulous politicians.
Hamas summer camps continued to gain strength this past summer as about 100,000 children underwent radical anti-Israel indoctrination by the terror group which also attacked United Nations camps, its main competition, according to a report released on Tuesday by the Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center.
According to the report, more than 100,000 children and teenagers participated in the Hamas camps which included paramilitary training and military parades. The Islamic Jihad terrorist organization also opened 51 different summer camps for over 10,000 children.

And here's a clip from official Palestinian Authority television where Judaism's ancient roots in Israel are denied and Jews who pray at the Western Wall are labeled “sin and filth.”
This poison—standard for PA television—was broadcast last week, on Sept. 10, 2010, Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year.
Why does Israel allow the PA to run this and other outrageous programs whose sole strategy is to delegitimize Judaism, Israel, and foment Jew-hatred?
Tolerance of the intolerant is not a virtue.
It's national suicide.
