Teaching Tots Terror: Hamas TV Promotes Culture of Death for Palestinian Children

[New York Daily News] Editorial - Once more, Hamas' TV channel has perverted children's programming by sending a cuddly character to death as a recruiting tool for jihad. There is no mistaking the Al Aqsa TV show "Tomorrow's Pioneers" for "Sesame Street." Its death rate is stomach-turning. Farfur, the mouse, was beaten to death by an Israeli policeman. Nahul, the bee, died when an Israeli blockade prevented him from getting to the hospital. And now Assud, the bunny, who once vowed to "finish off the Jews and eat them," has died in the Israeli bombing of Gaza. After Assud dies, his friend Saraa wails: "Don't die, Assud. Victory is near. The soldiers of the Pioneers of Tomorrow will grow up. O, Palestine, we will liberate your soil, Allah willing. We will liberate it from the filth of the Zionists. We will purify it with the soldiers of the Pioneers of Tomorrow." What hope can there be as long as Hamas steeps the most innocent of the Palestinians in a culture of death?
