Hamas Takes Revenge on Jewby Doo, Chez Jon Stewart

By Dan Friedman February 5, 2010

Showing, apparently, the audacity to hate, Hamas are still producing virulently antisemitic children’s cartoons. In the face of crass hypocritical vitriol that is geopolitically and socially destructive the Daily Show had no real option but to set Dr. Bagelman (erstwhile producer of Jewby Doo) on to introduce them.

The whole sequence is unbelievable but the cartoons are the least believable and the least funny. Watch the sequence here.

Hat tip Jack Miller.
