Sydney bakery sells a Hamas terror cake for toddler's fourth birthday

A Sydney bakery has come under fire for sharing images of a custom-made Hamas cake for a child’s birthday.

The large birthday cake and cupcakes featured the Palestinian flag on a map of Israel and the West Bank, and an image of masked Hamas spokesman, Abu Ubaida, in the terror group’s infamous green bandana, and the Palestinian keffiyeh pattern.

The birthday boy emulated Ubaida’s costume, wearing a red keffiyeh around his face and an army camouflage jacket. He mimicked the terrorist’s pose with a finger in the air in one photograph of the display.

Sydney-based Oven Bakery by Fu Fu was forced to remove the company’s social media accounts after photos of the Hamas cakes sparked outrage less than a day after they were shared.

If some suicide bomber walks into the Sydney Opera House and blows it up, we’ll know what his birthday cake looked like when he turned four.

Instead of "trick or treat," "Death to Western Imperialists or treat."

This is sick. Really sick.

But I suppose bigots and terrorist sympathizers aren't often noted for their ability to read the room.

13. And this is where hate is LEARNED by the elders

Doesn’t matter what your skin color is or what religion you are, your parents and elders will teach you to hate those not acceptable to your tribe.


That’s where hate manifests, within the community. This little 4 year old boy would not know anything about Hamas if it wasn’t being taught to him and who to hate.
