So the rabbi understands that calling them "concentration camps" is comparing them to the Holocaust based on the connotation of the term. That's the thing, the conditions in the border camps may be unethical and inhumane, but they aren't close to genocide or a gateway to genocide in any way. You are aware that comparing X to Y is not saying X is equal to Y, correct? Are you suggesting that comparisons should only be made and are only valid when the two things are identical? These literally are concentration camps. I'm sorry that upsets your delicate sensibilities and that you erroneously believe a certain inhumane threshold has to be cleared to use the term. --- http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/NIR_Hockey.png http://www.last.fm/user/hockeybub89/ <cite>hockeybub89 posted [p:923699299] in Rabbi: Nev...
