I hit my lifetime tolerance for heroic tales of children drafted into draconian, high mortality super-soldier programs justified as required for the greater good sometime around the end of the novel version of Ender's Game. Please adjust your story lines accordingly.

Also, while I'm not convinced about the Holocaust links, the book is very carefully stacked so that we feel sorry for Ender no matter what he does; in every situation where he does evil, there's somebody else (or the situation itself) to blame.
