| #3 I wouldn't want Baby Smurf to grow up in Saddam's Iraq. I don't mean just because we'd be the beleaguered minority of Smurfistan, to be gassed and shovelled into mass graves. I know it sounds heartless, but in the case of Smurfs would that be such a bad thing? |

| #2 Aside from the unsubtle slam on the US (who else has an air force at war?) there is also the interesting fact that by making the bad guys invisible, there was no need to get into their ethnicity or religion. |

| #1 Whew! Takes on the UNICEF Smurf movie and concludes with - Sometimes war is worth it. And, if you don't think so, look at the opening scenes of that Unicef video - Smurfs singing, dancing, gambolling merrily - and try to imagine living in a Smurf enclave in a province that wants to introduce Sharia. |
