Sesame Street airs peace propaganda
Must be more of that "foolish idealism" that those "leftist retards" are dreaming up ...

http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/story/0,3604,1067447,00.html

Sesame Street's Big Bird is hoping to triumph where George Bush, Tony Blair and numerous heads of state have failed, by bringing peace to the Middle East.

The European commission has given the producer of the long-running children's television show a £1.75m grant to produce a series of programmes for Israel, Jordan and the Palestinian territories.

On the Israeli show, Israeli and Arab characters are friends and band together to stage a peaceful protest when one of the Muppets bangs his drums too loudly. In an episode created for the Palestinian Ma'an Network, children are shown struggling to reach a high shelf or trying to ride a bike to a chorus of "keep trying, you will get there".

1. Sick isn't it
that they want to pollute the minds of our children with this "peace" crap?

Sesame Street is truly Anti-American; don't they know that war is the American way?
