The squeaky-voiced Mickey Mouse lookalike, named Farfur, is the star of a weekly children’s program called Tomorrow’s Pioneers on the official Hamas TV station (Al-Aqsa TV), which broadcasts from Gaza via satellite to the entire Arab world. Farfur and his co-host, a young girl named Saraa’, teach children about such things as the importance of the daily prayers and drinking milk, but also instruct them to hate Israel and the US and support "resistance" – a euphemism for terror.
"using Mickey Mouse to teach resistance is a powerful and effective way to indoctrinate children"
Farfur tells children that they must pray in the mosque five times a day until there is “world leadership under Islamic leadership.” The earnest and soft-spoken Saraa’ explains that the nucleus of the Islamic leadership of the world will be from “all of Palestine,” including Israel. Farfur refers to Israel as “the oppressive invading Zionist occupation,” which the children must "resist."
Saraa’ announces that after death, the children will have to answer to Allah for what they did or did not do for the Al Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem and for Palestinian prisoners: “I remind you that Al-Aqsa and the prisoners are a responsibility on our shoulders, and Allah will ask us on Resurrection Day what we gave for their sake," she tells the tots viewing the show.
According to Palestinian Media Watch, "using a character based on an appealing, world-famous and beloved icon like Mickey Mouse to teach Islamic supremacy and resistance as Islamic duty is a powerful and effective way to indoctrinate children."
The program encourages participation by child viewers, who phone in to the show and recite poems with images of hate and violence; for example, “We will destroy the chair of the despots, so they will taste the flame of death,” and, in another poem, "Rafah sings ‘Oh, oh.’ Its answer is an AK-47. We who do not know fear, we are the predators of the forest."
Het filmpje demonstreerd hoe de kinderen geindoctrineerd worden door de hamas in ogenschijnlijke onschuldige tv programma's gelijkende de Mickey Mouse Club. Dat vind ik vreselijk omdat je kinderen op die wijze probeert te hersenspoelen en manipuleren tot het geloven van propaganda en nogal agressieve ook. Niet het "de wereld is mooi, de bloempjes zijn geel en de kerstman komt ook als je een radiator hebt".
Tevens snap ik niet dat er door de regering niet ingegrepen wordt, denk niet dat hier kanalen/programma's als "Gestapo op 6" toe gestaan zouden worden. Kinderen horen zelf te leren denken en zelf te ontdekken, dat soort boodschappen gebracht door figuren in kinderprogramma's vind ik behoorlijk misplaatst!
