Geez. And all I ever got to do was make leather belts and swat mosquitoes. :-/ Kids have it lucky these days.

Dead for Tax Reasons: hello muddah, hello faddah
here i am at camp intifada...

Camp is very entertaining
And they say we'll kill some Jews if it stops raining

This is very common for terrorist groups. Hizbullah does the very same thing as well.

You know, that whole "Give me a child when he's 7, and he will be mine forever" fascist thing.

8InchFloppy: Why do you think the Catholics spend so much effort on the Boy Scouts?

Easy access to young, unsupervised naive young men who generally obey authority and respond well to threats?

Some weapons training. You'd think they'd teach them to keep their fingers off the god damned trigger.

FTA: Showcasing new skills in graduation ceremony

Ah yes, I'm so sick of these extremist xians, constantly blowing themselves up and killing people all over America.

MBarry: Some weapons training. You'd think they'd teach them to keep their fingers off the god damned trigger.

If an accident happens, they're martyrs, so they win either way

Tats, please for the sake of my respect for you, Don't go there. I've had talks with the kids of my orthodox friends whose Synagogues sponsor "Summer camps" . It's no accident that their fun camp songs are IDF marching Cadences, and that the camp's ciriculum for kids as young as 12) bears an eerie resemblence to IDF basic training (the 12 year old was cheerily telling how they played a "game " where you had to crawl into the other team's base and silently tag out the people standing guard there for example

simpsonfan: No more scary than 'Jesus Camp'.

... how about I make you spend 6 months in a city next to people from that camp, and 6 months in a city next to people from a Hamas camp, and you tell me where you felt more safe.

Oh please. Give me the name of those camps, please. I've spent about half of my shabbosim in Orthodox summer camps this summer either with families of friends or to help for activities and I've seen nothing of the sort.

Give me some effin' break. IDF basic training and marching songs? ah!

Death cult indoctrination for the elite leaders kids so they can carry on the tradition of death and keep the leaders in power at the expense of no peace for the Palestinians.

Cauthon: Other countries have been doing this for ages.

Yes but they're practicing weapon safety. Even if they're just airsoft. I'd be much more afraid of them.

Clarence Potter: "Pop their eardrum!" suggested Erika Barolli, 10. "Or gouge the eye socket." (new window)

Oh no! Martial arts! What will the world come to?!Clarence Potter: NPR's Adam Davidson tells a true story from his own childhood. He was sent to a camp run by the Israeli army at its own training facility. (new window)

Yes, indoctrinating children from 18 to 28

... what a load of unmitigated fail.

I hear this is where they've sent Lohan.

I can see why they'll need some more training, though.

Six rockets were fired from the Sinai and into Israel... but landed in Jordan, killing 1 and injuring 4.

clevershark: I learned to shoot with the Army Cadets in Canada. I joined when I was 14, but we had a few 12-year-old recruits.

Did they teach you class in terrorism and racial and religious hatred?

How many dumbasses would be saying 'This is just like I was going to the scouts!' or 'Yoshke Camp!' or 'Nothing wrong there!' if it wasn't Hamas but Al Qaeda instead?

I swear some of you people are so warped by your anti-Israel hatred it's kind of scary
