The Hamas satellite TV channel has responded to the international
controversy over its hatred-spouting Mickey Mouse clone by having the
character beaten to death by an Israeli and becoming a Shahid, martyr
for Allah.
Al-Aqsa TV broadcast Friday the final episode of the children’s
program Tomorrow’s Pioneers, starring Farfur, the Mickey Mouse
lookalike whose teachings about world Islamic domination, violence
and hatred outraged the world after PMW made them public in May.
Without apparent regard for the sensitivities of their child viewers,
the show’s creators killed off the character in a particularly
violent way that allowed them to continue the show’s rabidly anti-
Israel messages.
In this last episode, the squeaky-voiced Farfur receives land
documents from his grandfather. The episode ends when an Israeli
investigator tries to force Farfur to give up the key and the papers
that his grandfather had given him. When Farfur refuses, the Israeli
continues his brutal attack and beats Farfur to death.
Although Farfur’s death is not shown to the child viewers, the
hostess of the show, Saraa’, sadly announces his death to the
children:
“Yes, our children friends, we lost our dearest friend, Farfur.
Farfur turned to a Martyr while protecting his land. He turned into a
Martyr at the hands of the criminals, and murderers, the murderers of
the innocent children."
PMW reported the existence of the Mickey Mouse knockoff and his
hateful messages in May, prompting worldwide outrage. The New York
Daily News dubbed the character “Terror Mouse,” while Walt Disney’s
daughter Diane described it as “pure evil.”
Despite promises by the PA that the show would be suspended
immediately, it remained on the air for another week, and was then
suspended during the violence in Gaza. This final episode, which
includes the killing of Farfur by Israel, enabled Hamas to remove the
program while continuing its hate messages.
