Jerusalem (CNSNews.com) - Hamas television has created a new character to replace the Mickey Mouse look-alike named Farfur that called for jihad and a global Islamic takeover.
Nahool is a giant yellow and black-striped bumblebee, suspended from the studio ceiling. He says he wants to follow in his cousin Farfur's footsteps and calls for jihad, according to a translation provided on Monday by the Palestinian Media Watch (PMW).
During the episode of the children's program "Tomorrow's Pioneers" that aired on Friday, the child hostess Saraa looks up and sees Nahool. She asks him who he is and what he wants.
"I am Nahool [the bee], Farfur's cousin...I want to continue the path of Farfur, -- the path of 'Islam is the solution; the path of heroism; the path of martyrdom; the path of the Jihad warriors. Me and my friends shall continue the path of Farfur," Nahool says in the same squeaky voice that his cousin had.
"And in his name we shall take revenge upon the enemies of Allah, the murderers of the prophets [i.e. the Jews], the murderers of innocent children, until Al-Aqsa will be liberated from their filth," he said. Saraa welcomes Nahool to the show.
It is also the name of the Hamas television station and the military wing of the Fatah faction.
The use of Farfur to preach Islamic world domination angered many in the Western world. On the program two weeks ago, Farfur was "martyred" when an actor playing an Israeli interrogator beat him to death for refusing to sell his land.
PMW said it was clear that the show would continue its "rabidly anti-Israel messages" through Nahool after the death of the character of Farfur.

I was thinking more along the lines of John Belushi in a bee costume. :)
If you’ll note, the article points out that even other Palestinians find this to be going too far.
I mean, you wouldn't think that Hamas would be afraid of a corporate player of the "Great Satan" now would you.
Just doing a job the mouse wouldn’t do
Is this the homicide Bomb-ble bee? He is equipped with a stinger-missle. .or...he could be a jew-joo bee.
I am concerned with what will these super-terrorists do once the war is over. The current chaos is Gaza will look like Eden compared with what they will do.
