Just heard this on Rush so I looked up an article. Complete lunacy.

Forgive if duplicate, search came up with nothing

Those little blue b@stards had it comin'.

I never trusted that Papa Smurf. He was always hidin' somethin'

I hope we blow them all the way to Fraggle Rock.

Same subject, different article and source: Unicef bombs the Smurfs

[George Smiley]

I want to know where it can be downloaded so I can watch it again and again and again and again, hahahahahahaha!

[dinasour]

George Bush doesn't like blue people.

Death to the Smurfs ! /sarcasm

This must be the new "trick or treat" for UNICEF.

[SquirrelKing]

We had to destroy the Smurf village in order to save it.
I got some rice in my butt and 3 purple hearts...

[Fierce Allegiance]

Papa Smurf link needed here! LMFAO!

[reagan_fanatic]

Weren't the Smurfs all communists anyway?

[dangus]

The best part is the ending:

Of course, the Smurfs are a Belgian invention, first appearing in comic form in 1958. This might explain the horrified reaction over there. We reckon, on the other hand, that if the Smurf apocalypse TV ad were shown in Britain, Blair and Bush's approval rating for military action abroad would treble in a flash among adults more than willing to support any initiative which involves dropping munitions on Smurfs.

>> Weren't the Smurfs all communists anyway? <<

No, they were homos, not pinkos.

[Redbob]

"...you're trying to knock together a TV ad highlighting the effects of war on children."

And what would the point of THAT be?

Isn't it enough to say, "Not good?"

I'd certainly concede the "not good" argument.

[day10]

I have been searching around a little, but haven't found a download yet.

I never really paid attention to the Smurfs, too old for these cartoons by the time they were popular, so I dont have strong feelings about leveling their village.

Now, Barney the dinosaur is another story altogether.......

[dangus]

Umm... but, seriously folks... shall this not be exhibit A of "Why the USA should not fund the UN-SSR"?

[Doogle]

...guess the UNICEF people thought slitting the throats of innocent people might offend certain religious groups.


*smirk*

[Alex Murphy]

It's the SMURFPOCALYPSE!

[Trampled by Lambs]

"No, they were homos, not pinkos."

What do you expect when their entire race only had one female.

[dfwgator]

Papa Smurf always came across as a Pedophile to me.

... Smurf apocalypse ...

“Drop the Bomb. Exterminate them all.”

[Thrusher]

Smurf-tastic!
