I can't quite bring myself to embed it here, but at MEMRI there's a particularly nauseating clip from Egyptian TV of a smug 11-year-old boy called Muhammad Gamal reciting his poem Call to Jerusalem. A sample:
Oh Jerusalem, oh Jerusalem,
Your name is in the hearts of millions.
We will take you from the accursed Jews,
Who killed and massacred many people,
Many poor children, women, and the elderly,
And before them, they killed the prophets and messengers.
Nevertheless, you will continue to belong to the Arabs and Muslims.
"Well done Muhammad, that was beautiful", simpers the host.
