It's a tale worthy of its own movie script: The Gaza Strip's isolated and cash-strapped Hamas rulers plan to build a $200 million media city and movie production house that will be part tourist attraction and part effort to cement control of the territory it seized by force in June.Hamas envisions running a media propaganda center from Gaza, where it can churn out Farfour and other similar anti Semitic bits as fast as possible. They are seeking the funds to bring their diabolical plans to fruition - getting money together so that they can indoctrinate future generations of Palestinians into hating the West and Israel.
So far, though, the Islamic group has raised only a tiny fraction of the money it needs for its own Hollywood, at a time when the Gaza economy has ground to a standstill and its people are struggling to feed themselves because of Israeli and international sanctions against Hamas.
Even so, Hamas envisions a glittering facility with production and graphics studios, satellite technology, gardens, water ponds, a children's entertainment area and an array of cafes and restaurants, said the Felasteen daily, a Hamas paper.
It will even feature mock towns and villages similar to those that Palestinians fled or were forced out after Israel's creation in 1948, the newspaper reported, quoting Fathi Hamad, a Hamas lawmaker and head of the project.

It sounds lovely, but for the parts about indoctrinating kids to hate Israel, revisionist history, and lauding terrorists and suicide bombers:
