HILARIOUS VIDEO: “Sesame Street” Debuts in Afghanistan
“Maybe This Will Make Muslims Like Us Better,” Futile Attempt #44,898,723.
I’ve written before (here and here) about the idiocy of spending gazillions of U.S. tax dollars to develop and bring “Sesame Street” to various Muslim countries. It doesn’t make their kids grow up to hate us any less, or do anything to benefit America. Pakistani “Sesame Street” debuted in April. Have you seen a decrease in American soldiers being killed in Afghanistan with the help of the Pakis? Nope. Now, the TV show comes to Afghanistan, where it won’t save a single American soldier’s life or stop a young jihadi from trying to blow our men up. Imagine if the “Sesame Street” money (funded by the State Department and the U.S. Embassy in Kabul) were to go to something worthwhile in America instead. Where’s “The Count” when you need him? Here’s Jimmy Kimmel’s version of Afghani “Sesame Street.” He was too soft on them, but it’s still funny.
Watch the video . . .

Sayed al Qutb, the leading theorist of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, visited the US in the 1940s and spent time in Greeley, Colorado. America back then was a more strait-laced and conservative country than it is today. It still didn’t change his visceral hate of America. There’s no good reason to believe Muslim attitudes will be changed in the least if they get to see the kinder and gentler side of American life. In their eyes, we are kuffar – infidels – and nothing we do or say will change how they see us and public relations in the Muslim World to show America in a good light is just a waste of money. Like the good dhimmis we are, we appear to learn nothing from failure.
Just sayin’!
