Solidarity with "Palestine" Means Kalashnikovs for Kids

(National Review) A.J. Caschetta - The summer camps run by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad are terrorist training camps for children to learn to become child warriors. A PIJ political leader explained that the children were being trained in how "to remove the alien corn [i.e., Israel] that was planted by the West and took over Palestine." What they are really doing is teaching kids to kill and die. Pictures from PIJ camps show children learning to field-strip and clean their Kalashnikov rifles, running obstacle courses, training under simulated battle conditions of fire and smoke, and learning how to clear rooms like SWAT teams. Those signing petitions expressing solidarity with "Palestine" should contemplate the disparity of sending their own children off to camp to sing around the campfire and play "Capture the Flag," while the children of Gaza sing songs of martyrdom and play "Butcher the Jews."
