Hamas TV using Mickey Mouse replica to hate Americans and Israelis

Terror group Hamas is using a replica of Walt Disneys Mickey Mouse to preach Islamic radicalism and hate to Palestinian kids.

New York, May 8 : Terror group Hamas is using a replica of Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse to preach Islamic radicalism and hate to Palestinian kids.

Named Farfur, the life-size clone of Mickey, complete with big ears, a squeaky voice, a tuxedo with tails, a red bow tie and white gloves, is the star of the Hamas' new kiddie TV show "Tomorrow's Pioneers," reports the New York Daily News.

Farfur tells children to drink milk, pray daily - and take up AK-47 assault rifles to defeat Israel and the U.S.

He also sings, dances and taunts President George Bush, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, who has been in a coma for months.

A little girl named Saraa serves as Farfur's sidekick and says things like, "We want to resist against the enemy, and we don't want to surrender."

The perverse show is broadcast throughout the Gaza Strip on Hamas' Al-Aqsa TV station, telling children to strive for "world leadership under Islamic leadership."

They sing songs with lyrics like "We will destroy the chair of the despots, so they will taste the flame of death." A child named Rafah was recently praised for calling in to sing about an AK-47.

Itamar Marcus, director of Palestinian Media Watch, said the program began running last month.

"It's a brilliant way of getting the most horrific messages into the consciousness of young children without them even realizing the terrible nature of what they are learning," Marcus said. "It's fun. You laugh at Farfur. You don't realize you're being poisoned."

Marcus said his group has informed the Walt Disney Co. of the mad mockery. But Disney spokesman Jonathan Friedland declined to comment yesterday. The U.S. State Department also refused to comment.
