Rabbiting on in cartoon row

A MAN-SIZED talking rabbit appeared on television in Gaza yesterday to denounce Danish newspapers over cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad that offended Muslims.

The latest in a line of cartoon-inspired characters that take the message of the Hamas Islamist movement to Palestinian children, the actor in the Bugs Bunny-style outfit also railed against "Zionist filth" and Israel's control of Jerusalem.

The show Tomorrow's Pioneers on Hamas's al-Aqsa channel has become a weekend fixture for pre-teens.
