The Hamaskateers! P-A-L, E-S-T, I-N-I-A-N!

Hamas uses children’s programming to gain support for their violent cause .

I dont usually talk about politics, but this really busts my buttons. The gall of these people to indoctrinate kids in such a vile manner. Dont they know that the only acceptable way of using TV to manipulate kids is through judicious product placement? Sarcasm folks, but yet I think one can see a clear difference between Mickey, the state of Western youth media, and this travesty of justice.

Holy cow, I would have loved to be on the board meeting at the studio for this discussion:

“Yeah, OK, so our opinion polls are showing a drop in the under-12 bracket. Any ideas?”

“Well, kids like cartoons. We could, ummmm, rip-off Mickey Mouse and have him spout out our ideology all day long.”

“Great idea Husef, you’re getting a promotion!”
Ugh, what the fuck goes through these people’s heads. Dont you have to be educated to make things for TV? Wait… nevermind, I didn’t think that through.

Anyway, this is fucking lame. The malicious shitstains producing this show deserve a good beatdown by Mickey’s foam gloves.

To end with a quote by “Farfour,” the Islamic Bizzaro Mickey:

“We will return the Islamic community to its former greatness, and liberate Jerusalem, God willing, liberate Iraq, God willing, and liberate all the countries of the Muslims invaded by the murderers.”

fuckwits :mad:

There ain’t no way in hell that’s a serious kid’s show, though; it has all the earmarks (so to speak) of broad satire. Why would they use Mickey Mouse as a mascot anyway? Doesn’t Mickey represent the sort of Western cultural imperialism that Islamic radicals are generally pissed off about? To use the character as a means of indoctrination would be sort of like PAX TV offering a children’s show starring lovable, kindly, Uncle Osama and his wise quotations from the Koran.

I think you’re underestimating the depths to which Islamic radicals are willing to go to in order to indoctrinate youth. I found another article on it here

Wow! These guys are giving rodents a bad name. Just when I thought the Liberal Media was leaving us alone. :smiley:

Here’s the actual clip referred to:

Chinese expropriation makes kids smile while earning yuáns. The Palestinian goal: make kids suicidal and strap on bombs.

7

Nah, they have a long way to go. In the eighties, G.I. Joe managed to simultaneously indoctrinate kids into embracing political hegemony and xenophobia while exploiting them as consumers.

These guys are panty-waists. :wink:

And we still grew up to be okay, and in many cases, open-minded liberals.

I cannot restrain myself from breaking into song:

*Who’s the leader of Islam
That’s made for you and me
F-A-R-F-O-U-R M-O-U-S-E
Hey! there, Hi! there, Ho! there
Push the Jews into the sea
F-A-R-F-O-U-R M-O-U-S-E

Farfour Mouse! (Kill the infidels!)

Farfour Mouse! (Liberate our homeland and return the Islamic community to its former greatness!)

Forever let us blow our children
up. High! High! High!*

Catchy.

Is Disney going to sue Palestine out of existence?

11

Here is a clip of the show in question.

This reminds me of the article in Our Dumb Century about the Nazis creation of an adorable new cartoon mascot “Kamphy the Uberhound”.

12

I just realized that Farfour’s gloves are backwards- the notches should be on the outside of the gloves. Also, he has too much cheek and tiny eyes. Everything’s wrong about this guy!

13

After viewing that, I have to say that Islamic radicalist programming certainly gives South Florida cable access a run for its money in the-- er-- money department. It’s clear from the production values that they aren’t exactly being funded directly from the House of Saud. Certainly a depressing glimpse into the strange worldview of the Palestinian community-- "Should we give our airtime to the wispy guy in the Mickey Mouse costume who broadcasts anti-Israeli screeds from his basement? Or should we run another season of The Dukes of Hazzard?"

The kid seems like she’s got a real composed screen presence, though (assuming that’s an actual kid and not some sort of malevolent Charles Band-style dwarf created by Palestinian Muppet technology). She might have a future in broadcast propaganda if she doesn’t wind up scarred into muteness by the antics of her radical Islamo-Furry Uncle Yakoub there.

14

What I don’t get is why outside of the US the rest of the world pretty much cuts the Palestinians slack. As F’ed up as Israel is it pales in comparison to dress their kids as suicide bombers, make cartoons like that, and celebrate murderers.

15

Everybody loves an underdog?

16

Who sit back and are ignorant of at least 75% of the wars carried out in order for us to maintain our standard of living.

Remember, GI Joe was a secret elite taskforce sent out to fight multinational terrorists. If you heard about their mission, that means they fucked it up. :wink:

If it wasn’t for the CIA toppling third world government’s every few months, our import goods would be too expensive for us to afford.

Urban Liberals are the stock in trade of global hegemony. After all, a globalist hegemonic foreign policy is called ‘Liberalism’.

There’s a reason the Neo-Cons are referred to as Neo-Liberals outside of the US.

17

Are you suggesting that in “the rest of the world” (by which I assume you mean the non-US, non-Muslim world) this television show is meeting with approval?

Because AFAICT it isn’t. Hell, even Palestinians disapprove of it:

18

Israel are the good guys because they are the winners. The side with technological superiority has more leeway in how they prosecute wars. Despite the fact that they kill orders of magnitude more people than the Palestinians, they do it with laser guided weapons, so it’s more ‘humane’.

And well, basically, you want the honest truth?

The world treats Israel like adults and the Palestinians like children. That’s why Israel is held to a higher standard. Israel is supposed to be a pillar of the community and the Palestinians are considered the delinquent children. Their culture simply isn’t as advanced as the Israeli culture. Israeli identity was built over 5000 years. What we currently call “Palestinian” is a loose confederation of tribes thrown together in refugee camps and are now trying to come up with a cohesive identity.

19

I think you are right.

Well you have to understand that the rest of the world is a funny old place. There are all sorts of unfathomables.

You have to wonder why American Imperial measurements in all their elegance and utility haven’t taken off in the rest of the world: How do other countries manage with that antique metric system?

And what business do any foreign nations have, claiming to be free and secure? When they all plainly lack well-armed militias the Constitution has it in black and white are necessary.

It could be that their spiritual lives lack the nourishment of Creationism that sustains the US through its daily life. That might be it, the golden path of biblical literalism which leads to all awareness and salvation has yet to be properly trod by those lacking a US habitation.
