Hamas Kills Mickey Mouse!

Gaza Hamas hails mouse as hero

I can't make this stuff up. Well, I mean, I can, but why the hell would I want to?

You may have heard things have been getting a little hot over in the Gaza Strip, even by local standards. The Associated Press reported Friday that a Mickey Mouse lookalike who preached Islamic domination on a Hamas-affiliated children's television program was beaten to death in the show's final episode Friday.

Go back and re-read that paragraph. Now look at the photo.

Yep, that's right. Hamas killed Mickey Mouse – and blamed the Israelis.

The way the story goes, an Israeli official was trying to buy the land of the show's hero, Farfour the Mouse, who looks and sounds exactly like Mickey. The mouse called the Israeli a "terrorist" and the Israeli killed him. According to the AP: "Farfour was martyred while defending his land," said Sara, the teen presenter. He was killed "by the killers of children," she added.

This was the last episode of Farfour. Israeli officials have denounced the program.

Harsh. Can we do this for How I Met Your Mother?

I bet we could do it for "How I Met Your Mother?", but the American public might not take to the program ending with a series of honor killings.

Well, at least Mickey was 'the good guy'.
