Promoting violence and terror among children through video clips and
other children´s programming has long been a prominent component of
Palestinian Authority Television. This week a young girl was asked
to recite a poem on PA TV. The poem is the recounting of a present
received from daddy; "a machine gun and rifle."
"Daddy brought me a present
A machine gun and a rifle
When I am big I will join the liberation army
The liberation army has taught us
How to liberate our homeland"
[PA TV, February 26, 2006]

In a previous PA TV children´s program, preschoolers were taught the
recommended response if a "little boy" were to cut down a tree -
to "bring AK-47s and ... commit a massacre."
When three 15-year-olds were killed on a suicide mission PA honored
them and their desire to be killed as shahids - martyrs for Allah.
