Good News: Egyptian Intelligence Blames Tom & Jerry For Escalating Islamic Violence

Because why not?

(Daily Caller)  Egypt’s top intelligence official stated Tuesday that the 1940’s cartoon “Tom & Jerry” is to blame for the escalating violence in the Middle East, not radical Islamic terrorism.

“[Tom & Jerry] portrays violence in a funny manner,” Salah Abdel Sadeq said in a speech at “The Media and the Culture of Violence” conference at Cairo University. “It gives the impression that, yes, I can hit him, and I can blow him up with explosives. It becomes set in the viewer’s mind that this is natural”

Abdel Sadeq — who heads up Egypt’s State Information Service — further stated that violent video games also share part of the blame.

“Video games are spreading,” he noted. “it has become normal for a young man to sit for long hours playing video games, killing and spilling blood. He is happy and content with that.”

Yeah, I’m thinking it is more a case of a religion that has become more and more violent over the past 50 years. Not that they weren’t ultra violent when Mohamed was on the scene. And the violence is a direct result of what the Koran says.
