Hamas Mickey Mouse gets killed off

And not a moment too soon. Even Palestinians found this critter repulsive.

The Hamas-affiliated al-Aqsa channel aired the last episode on Friday, showing the character, Farfur, being beaten to death by an “Israeli agent”.

“Farfur was martyred defending his land,” said the show’s presenter Saraa.

Israeli critics had said the show was outrageous and some Palestinian ministers tried to get it shelved.

What connection does a Mickey Mouse rip-off have with Islam anyway?
