They decided to mock a democracy instead--
Here is the description from Israel Insider:
The Comedy Central website has published an anti-semitic game called "I.S.R.A.E.L. Attacks," in which a murderous robot called Israel is called upon to wipe out every cartoon character on the show. The short animated movie that introduces the premise of the game portrays a "Jew Producer" being "busted" for stealing cartoon characters. "I.S.R.A.E.L" is then sent out to destroy them all.The hypocrisy is blatant:
...recently, in the episodes "200" and "201," Muhammad appeared as a large, black "censored" bar (as opposed to a guy in a bear costume). Comedy Central again denied their request to show Muhammad and even bleeped out Muhammad's name. Even the trademark "moral of the story" scene, which was apparently a warning about the use of fear and intimidation, was entirely bleeped out by the network.This is beyond words--which these days is what passes for comedy.

D.A., this is unbelievable. At first, I wasn't sure what I was viewing. Am I misunderstanding this? Could it be a favorable portrayal of a strong Israel? I'm trying to be positive here...
ReplyDeleteAnd what's with the high heels, anyway? Is that supposed to be a further insult?
The high heels is because the L in I.S.R.A.E.L stands for Lady:
