Hamas children's show orders Danes killed
A large pink rabbit on a Hamas television children's show promotes the murder of a Mohammed cartoonist and orders Muslim kids to boycott Danish goods A children's show airing on Palestinian political wing Hamas' own television station, Al-aqsa, has allowed one of its characters to promote the assassination of a Mohammed cartoonist. In an episode last week of the children's programme 'The Pioneers of Tomorrow', the show's large pink rabbit Assud said he would 'bite and eat' the Danes and that Hamas would kill them if they insulted the prophet Mohammed again. Assud and his sidekick, 12-year-old Saraa, initiated a call-in on the show where a child was asked what should be done about cartoonist Kurt Westergaard, who drew a Mohammed wearing a bomb-turban for the original cartoon publication. The cartoons were recently reprinted in several national newspapers. The child called Vestergaard a 'criminal' and said that he should be killed. Assud replied that such is Allahs will. The show ended with the motto, 'We hope all will be martyrs for Allah's sake'. What a poisonous bit of work. Hamas' own hitlerjugend. The show airs regularly on the Hamas-operated station and is sent throughout the Gaza area of Israel and Egypt. Westergaard said he was extremely troubled by the transmission. 'It scares me that Muslim children are subjected to this type of propaganda,' said Westergaard. 'I don't understand how one can use hate in the name of education.' Oh, come now, Mr. Westergaard. The 20th century is replete with such examples. But Ehab Galal, a researcher at the University of Copenhagen's Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies, told Nyhedsavisen newspaper that the show's message is not as serious as it sounds. 'These comments are not necessarily meant as severe as they sound to us Danes,' said Galal. 'Palestinians grow up under extremely hard conditions and they express themselves in a different way.' "Ha Ha Ha - it's the Jews' fault we hate Danes."
