Teens in Nazi "game" face penalty!

Once more, there are innocents involved, who are forced to atone for the barbaric practices of others: I do NOT condone such behavior, and neither should those who dislike the Israeli treatment of the Palestinian people: Seven seniors at a Southern California high school are facing disciplinary action for participating in a game called: "Beat the Jew", in which losers were subject to "incineration" or "enslavement", a school administrator said Friday. The "game" involved some students playing the role of Nazis who blindfolded and dropped off other students playing Jews, who had to find their way back to the campus, said Sherry Johnson, assistant superintendent of personnel for Desert Sands Unified School District. Seven seniors at the high school could be suspended or barred from graduation, among other measures. "This is appalling to us," she said "We want our students to understand the horror of a title like this." Yet, for all that, was that "game" a reflection of the horror the Palestinians who are driven from their homes, and whom the Israeli government ejects from their ancient land and tortures them on a regular basis have any bearing on this matter? Think about it!!
