JohnRich 4 #1 October 11, 2005 In the news: There is a new UNICEF ad-campaign on Belgian television. The video is peacefully introduced by birds, butterflies and happy Smurfs playing and singing their theme song when suddenly out of the sky, bombs rain down onto their forest village, scattering Papa Smurf and the rest as their houses are set ablaze. The bombs kill Smurfette leaving Baby Smurf orphaned and crying at the edge of a crater... The appeal is meant to raise money for UNICEF projects in Africa to shock a complacent public into backing its fund-raising efforts for ex-child soldiers in Africa. Full Story Photo attached of Smurf slaughter. This is not a joke... Save the Smurfs! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gawain 0 #3 October 12, 2005 Reminds me of the PETA comic book showing a "mother" cutting up a rabbit which they wanted to distribute to school children. So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

Yeah, isn't it odd that it takes comic book characters to awaken the human nature in people to stop an atrocity. Next up: The Simpsons go to the Sudan to stop the slaughter of Africans by Arab Muslims, and Mickey Mouse restores freedom and prosperity to North Korea!
