Here's a video with clips from Hamas TV, featuring children singing a song of praise for Qassam rockets, followed by a visit with creepy child host Saraa and Assud the giant Jew-eating rabbit in his hospital room, shortly before the whiny carnivorous bunny died from his IDF-inflicted injuries.
Nappy didn't get all the Hebrew in the subtitles, but couldn't help noticing that one of the places these young nationalists promise to return to in their imminent victorious reclamation of their homeland is ... (drum roll) ... Tel Aviv!
Yes, that small settlement built on the sand dunes near Jaffa in 1909 taking its name from the title of the first translation into Hebrew of Herzl's utopian novel "Altneueland," Tel-Aviv is now claimed as part of the nonexistent Palestinian people's eternal patrimony.
