U.N.-funded puppet show tells kids to fight Jews

by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik

A Palestinian NGO, the Burj Luq-Luq Social Center Society organization, performed a puppet show for children in East Jerusalem to promote non-smoking. The educational message delivered by the puppets instructed children to replace cigarettes with machine guns. ...

In addition to teaching children not to smoke, the puppet show glorified death and violence and educated children to see Jews as "enemies" who kill the Palestinian youth of Jerusalem. ...

According to the website, the Burj Luq-Luq Social Center Society is or has been supported by various branches of the UN, including UNICEF and UNESCO.
