The Passion of the Mouse

It is with regret that we report that Farfour, the giant rodent star of the Hamas TV children’s show, has died.

Hamas TV has axed a Mickey Mouse lookalike who made worldwide headlines for preaching Islamic domination and armed struggle to youngsters.

The station broadcast what it said was the last episode of a weekly children’s show featuring the character named Farfour.

In the final skit, Farfour was beaten to death by an actor posing as an Israeli official trying to buy Farfour’s land.

At one point, Farfour called the Israeli a “terrorist”.

“Farfour was martyred while defending his land,” said Sara, the teen presenter.

He was killed “by the killers of children”, she added.

Our condolences to family and friends.
