A Palestinian Authority TV quiz for kids glorifies and encourages child martyrdom. The host says "Martyrdom" is "bliss" and calls Faris Ouda -- a Palestinian boy who set off to become a "Martyr" in Nov. 2000 -- a "knight" and a "hero" who reached "Paradise."

Transcript:
Child host: "The [clue] to the riddle:
The national hero, a small child;
A knight riding the "Martyrdom" horse;
Martyrdom is bliss.
Paradise is yours, the hero of Palestine,
who carried a stone to confront a tank.
The prize is very high: $200."
Answer to the riddle: Faris Ouda.
[PA TV (Fatah), Sept. 16, 2008]

Note: Ouda was a 14 year-old Palestinian boy who prepared his own memorial before going off to become a Shahid (Martyr) on Nov. 9, 2000.
