Hezbollah Game Show


Iranian-backed terrorist gang Hezbollah has its own television game show, the New York Times reports:

Quick. What is the name of the Palestinian village near what is now the Israeli city of Ramla that was destroyed in 1949 and replaced by a town called Yavne?

Too difficult? It's Yibna. Try another.

What structure built of gray sandstone in 1792 became the source of all oppressive decisions the world over?

This one should be easy: the White House.

If you answered both questions correctly, you might be prime fodder to compete on "The Mission," a game show running on Al Manar, the satellite television channel of Hezbollah, the militant Lebanese group.

The main purpose of the game show is to incite more Muslims to work for the ethnic cleansing of the Jewish people from Israel. The New York Times characterizes the show as "a tad more subtle than the channel's other offerings".

Check it out -- the winner listed toward the end of the article is a Libyan surgeon who lives in Germany and stopped off to appear on the game show during a big Lebanon tour that included throwing rocks at Israeli soldiers who were committing the atrocity of being on the other side of the border fence from him -- i.e., they were in Israel, their own country. Also, he donated his winnings to a charity (wink-wink, nudge-nudge).

1. “Jews… America… Jews … Freedom… Jews … Democracy… Jews ..“ “Um,… things that explode… things that must be wiped out… things that are the sources of all evil in the modern world!” “Ding!”

2. “By Allah, if you give us another lecture on spaying and neutering like Bob Freakin’ Barker, the next house to explode is yours!”

3. “No, I’m sorry, that is not the correct answer.” “Do you wish to wager your children’s lives on that?”

4. “Big Bucks! Big Bucks! No Apaches! Stop!”

5. “Hey, since we have already placed both of your wives in sound-proof booths anyway, would you like to give 'em a few rounds of firm Islamic discipline?”

6. “Well, as soon as Ramel the dressing-room towel-boy awakens from his roophy-cocktail, at least one of you is going to have some ‘splaining to do.”

7. The only game show in the world where “Have you stopped beating your wife?” is not a trick question.

8.“Yes, Rice-a-Roni does happen to halal. You’re good.”

9. “Ha! Paper covers rocks! Losers!”

10. “Jeez, what an obvious toupee. Talk about a Persian rug? What are you, some kind of splodeydope Marv Albert?”

Am I right in getting the feeling that Muslims glory in their own imperialistic ventures but see everyone else's in a completely different light?

You have to give credit to the Arabs and Muslims for their imagination in using all forms of media to pound their message. If Israelis were only so smart, perhaps their position would be better.
