Kids' TV characters have a rough go of it in the Gaza Strip

National Review, March 10, 2008

> Kids' TV characters have a rough go of it in the Gaza Strip. Farfour the Mouse was beaten to death by an Israeli soldier, and Nahoul the Bee died a martyr when he could not get to Egypt for medical attention. But fear not, jihadi children: Assud the Bunny is here, carrying "the Key of Return," ready to liberate Jerusalem from "the filth of those Zionists." But what if ratings should sag--how might Assud meet his maker? It's tempting to imagine something innocuous--ringworm, enteritis--but more likely still is that the jolly jihadist will reach the same sanguinary end he is pushing on a generation of watching Gazans.
