No, the United States had internment camps where, compared to anything the Germans or Japense had, the living conditions were descent. While still a shame upon the United States those camps were not meant for the enslavement or genocide of an entire race. To compare the US Internment camps with Concentration camp does an injustice to anyone who suffered in a concentration camp.

But I believe if a Holocaust survivor were to to see the results of another holocaust…babies in utero…they would be horrified! So the US or Canada or most other countries would be a shame to any Holocaust survivor.
 
Amazing, thats something I as a younger person might never experience.

Not to sound too negative, we never know what is ahead. You being young may very well experience something to the effect …as opposed to me, who is probably much older…but I hope not in your situation…🙂

That’s imposing your morality upon someone else’s frame of reference…for most Jews…at least as I understand their theology…abortion is not murder.
 
I visited Dacchau twice about 45 or so years ago. I will very deeply moved. Its just a story, until you go to a camp, and see the gas chambers and the cremetoriums. I’ll never ever forget it. Roanoker
