From the article Omar cited: Hamas . . . . has
succeeded in raising a generation of people who
have taken in the meaning and values of Islam
through an ongoing educational process.

Hamas camp: Sun, fun ... indoctrination

This is summer camp in the Gaza Strip, as
organized by Harakat al-Moqawama al-Islamiyah, the
Islamic Resistance Movement, better known as Hamas
-- which is officially regarded by the United
States and many other countries as a terrorist
organization that has killed hundreds of Israelis.
All summer long, at camps in playgrounds, in
dirt-poor neighborhoods and on glittering
Mediterranean beaches, Palestinian boys and young
men get together in safe, well-managed,
comfortable facilities decorated with the
fluttering green flags of Hamas.
"In this camp we learn the important things of
life -- good behavior, respect," said Osama, who
was spending the summer at a Hamas-run camp on the
beach outside Gaza City.
They also learn how to sing "intifada songs,"
including one urging them to "kill Zionists
wherever they are, in the name of God."
