Y'know if I hadn't seen this with my own eyes I would have thought this was an 'April Fool's joke'. And it's not even April yet.

Wow, who would have thought folks in 'Iraq' knew about "anime". Smile

Oh and that comment about "dipictions of god", that is TOO funny.

I'd really like to know the backstory on this one.

The three children of a former Palestinian security chief were gunned down in their car on the way to school. About ten years ago he had led a security crackdown on Hamas. It's thought to be a revenge killing, but what's so shocking to people is that it was against innocent children.

Oh yeah, that's right. My bad! Embarassed
As much as I listen to the news and I'm thinking about Iraq again.

Hoo boy.

Wow...that's a little bizarre.

I bet she probably just searched for a picture of "child" on the internet and found that one and thought it was cool. She probably has noooo idea who is actually on that sign.

Exactly. And the "child"'s pugnacious and unkind expression is ripe propaganda poster fodder.

This is so... wow.

I'm so becoming a born-again fundamentalist Haruhiite. Haruhiist? Whatever.

Believe!

Depressing and related, but I was thinking more why Haruhi was on that sign.

Wow, 25 posts and no mention of Zionists or AIPAC on a thread about the Middle East conflict. That's a record.

Wouldn't it be funny/strange/f**ked up if this was all just a promo concocted by Kadokawa Ltd.?

Wow.

This is strangely amusing and moving at the same time. Haruhi is spreading her awesomeness around the world! But I wonder, how do people in Gaza know of TMOHS?

It's possible that the protestors found it on Google, while looking for a topic related to anime, and that they don't even know about the show.
