Hamas-style education
Suicide bomber's children watch live reenactment of their mother's death on Hamas TV

Hamas-style education

Suicide bomber's children watch live reenactment of their mother's death on Hamas TV
Ynet

Educating the children: A children show on Hamas' TV network aired a special episode last week dedicated to female suicide bomber Reem Salah al-Riyashi.

The Palestinian woman blew herself up at the Erez Crossing in 2004, killing four Israelis.

Producers invited al-Riyashi's children to the show, so they can see a live reenactment of their mother's death in the terror attack. The shows host, a bear called Nasour, invited "martyr Riyashi's children" to enter the studio, before they proceeded to watch a video accompanied by music.



The video features a woman building a bomb as her daughter watches. The child then asks: "Mom, what are you carrying in your arms instead of carrying me? Is it a toy or a gift for me?" The mother does not respond and is seen leaving the house, as her daughter sings to her: "Come back soon, mom."

2. Notice how "progressives" are silent on this
We must accept this depravity as part of "cultural diversity".

Apparently, glorifying suicide bombing is considered an acceptable part of other cultures, and we cannot let our Western sensibilities of human rights and fairness, interfere, since that would be too "imperialistic" and "colonial" of us.

3. Hamas are sick fucks...
But let's not pretend that Westerners can't also glorify violence.

I've posted before about the violent pro-war verses and tales that were often popular with the English; about the bloodthirsty songs of Irish and Scottish rebels. Of course suicide-bombing was never part of any of these cultures - but, for example, the recruitment of young teenagers into violent and deadly conflict sometimes was. Here are quotes from a quite recent (mid-20th-century) Irish rebel song about a 16-year-old boy killed in a shootout with the Royal Ulster Constabulary:

'Tis barely two years (i.e. age 14) since I wandered away
With the local battalion of the bold I.R.A.
I read of our heroes and wanted the same
To play up my part in the patriot game...

I gave up my boyhood to drill and to train,
To play my own part in the patriot game...
For shirking his part in the patriot game

I don't mind a bit if I shoot down police
They're lackeys for war - never guardians of peace ...

And now as I lie with my body all holes
I think of those traitors who bargained and sold
I'm sorry my rifle has not done the same
For the quislings who sold out the patriot game'

Anyway, encouraging children to glorify violence is disgusting whoever does it; and a big ugh to Hamas; may they soon be an almost-forgotten part of history.

7. You know, CNN had a story about it
and it included some older clips with a Micky Mouse look alike character. Disney is known to go hard after everyone who is using any Disney image. I wonder whether it ever went after them.

8. Farfour the mouse was beaten to death by an evil Zionist
Edited on Thu Jul-16-09 08:47 PM by Mosby
and was replaced by Nahoul the Bee who was martyred when he could not leave Gaza for an operation. He was replaced by his brother Assoud the rabbit who apparently decided that he could defeat the evil Zionists by eating them and in doing so ate some bad meat and died.
