And again: Hamas kiddie television calls for murdering Jews

The 'lovely' Saraa (niece of Fuzzy Wuzzy) Barhoum at Hamas Kiddie television's Tomorrow's Pioneers has once again hosted a fuzzy friend who has called for murdering Jews.

All Jews must be "erased from our land," Nassur, a stuffed bear who hosts the weekly program, Tomorrow's Pioneers, on Hamas's Al-Aksa television, explained to a child who called in to a September 22 show. "We want to slaughter them, Saraa, so they will be expelled from our land... we'll have to [do it] by slaughter."

Let's go to the videotape (no, this is not the one on the JPost web page - that was an old one). A partial transcript follows and I'll have a comment after that.



Here's a partial transcript:

Nassur: "There won't be any Jews or Zionists, if Allah wills. They'll be erased."

Saraa: "Chased away."

Nassur: "And just like we will visit the Qaaba [in Mecca]... everyone will visit Jerusalem."

(A seven-year-old boy on the phone tells how his father, a member of Hamas's Izzadin Kassam Brigades, "died as a shahid (martyr).")

Nassur to boy: "What do you want to do to the Jews who shot your father?"

Boy: "I want to kill them."

Saraa: "We don't want to do anything to them, just expel them from our land."

Nassur: "We want to slaughter (nidbah-hom) them, so they will be expelled from our land, right?"

Saraa: "Yes. That's right. We will expel them from our land using all means."

Nassur: "And if they don't want [to go] peacefully, by words or talking, we'll have to [do it] by slaughter (shaht)."

(Al-Aksa (Hamas) TV, September 22, 2009)

I wonder if Richard Goldstone would consider this tape relevant to his investigation. Nah, it might reflect poorly on Hamas.
