Carnage In Cartoonland
2005-10-10
CHILDREN'S favourite Smurfs are wiped out in a gruesome bloodbath in a new episode of the cartoon made for the United Nations.
The UN is a cartoon organization, just not as realistic.
Stunned adults and weeping children watched a preview in disbelief as Papa Smurf and Smurfette were blown to bits when bombs rained down on their village.
Oh, be still my heart!
Only baby Smurf survives the carnage, far worse than anything dished out by their usual enemy Gargamel.
Now, if they'd only go after that purple dinosaur
The chilling film, produced by the UN children's organisation Unicef Belgium, warns, 'Don't let war affect the lives of children'.
Nice to see they're spending all that money on something useful instead of wasting it on food

It will be broadcast after the 9pm watershed. It was approved by the Smurfs late creator Peyo and aims to raise £70,000 for former child soldiers in Burundi.
Wonder if we can find this video online? I know a lot of people who'd love to see smurf guts splattered all over the screen.

#12  "...bombs rained down on their village...Burundi": is this a PC way of arguing that its the USA and Dubya's Fascist Imperialist air forces that wiped out an innocent, enviro-correct African = World village ergo the USA is responsible for local Burundi warlords going ona rampage and recruiting child soldiers???

#11  Just a warning to the blue states?

#10  Warplanes, you say?

B-2s unless I miss my guess, since the little blue terrorists were caught by surprise.

They undoubtedly had it coming.

Hell, they were probably celebrating the anniversary of 9-11 or the latest beheading video when the bombs served a cease and desist order.

Thanks, Unicef, for finally showing the world what happens if you piss us off, and that human(?) shields are useless, with or without a media presence.

#7  Don't forget that Smurfette would end up sold into slavery.

#6  As Rush said, if they show terrorists sawing the head off papa smurf and the baby girl smurfs getting raped by the terrorists, it would be more realistsic.
