Curious George is Muslim? Who knew?

Don’t “orthodox” Muslims despise monkeys right along with dogs, pigs, and Jews?

Curious George could find himself being cast off a rooftop, stoned, or decapitated.

Maybe all three.

It's a fancy vest for George!

"Try on this vest and walk on over into that outdoor market, George!" said Kareem.

After they had sex with him.

Islam originates the identity of 'pigs and apes' as deeply offensive derogatory terms. Curious George (the ape) can then join the "Three Little Pigs" compete with fire/wind-proof masjids.

He has a certain goat-like glint in his eye that the Muzzies find irresistible.

Next book, Curious George is abducted and forced to become a Bacha Bazi dancer.

Soon to be Headless George.

I thought for sure this was satire.

Wait ‘til ISIS hears about a monkey being shown practicing Islam. They’ll have a cow.

"Children's character Curious George observes Ramadan"

George: Hey look, I see Ramadan!

By the way, will the Mooslims take offense to this? They say that Jews are descended from apes and monkeys, does this mean that Mooslims are the real monkeys?

Is Curious George doing Ramalamadingdong because bananas are crescent shaped?

What’s next, Minnie Mouse in niqab?

[Celerity]

There are a LOT of popular children’s icons who have been remade to be muslim.

Recently I stumbled along the Minions doing a Ramadan. They were fasting and really wanted a banana. Something happened and I’m sure that one poured acid on another.

But still - MANY children’s stories have been made to tell Islamic stories.

In the future I see Charlie Brown beheading Dagwood and Blondie, and Lucy being the victim of an honor killing.

[wally_bert]

Lucy should at least be repeatedly kicked like a football.

[Pearls Before Swine]

Curious George...what a chimp!

Curious George was created by H.A. Rey and his wife Margaret around 1940. I do not think they would approve of what has become of their beloved characters. Shame on the publishing company for corrupting a classic work. By the way Khan, the writer of this holiday series, has a common middle eastern surname.

[CodeToad]

Well, muslims are less than monkeys on the hierarchy of life.

[sonjay]

Good Lord ... can’t they leave anything alone?

Apparently not. They already infected Sesame Street:

The series was written and drawn by the team of Hans Augusto Rey and Margret Rey. The couple fled Paris in June 1940, on self-made bicycles, carrying the Curious George manuscript with them.

At first, only H. A. Rey was credited for the work in order to distinguish the Reys' books from the large number of children's books written by female authors. Later, Hans Rey was credited for the illustrations and Margret Rey for the writing. The Reys produced many other children's books, but the Curious George series was the most popular. Each book has been in continuous print since it was first published.

Both have passed

The current United States publisher is Houghton Mifflin Harcourt of Boston Mass., which is a "Global Learning Company" and major producer of government indoctrination centers' books and materiels ...

Those are just one poor freeper’s attempts to go ‘viral’. I think. Either that, or he decided to try his hand at haiku’s instead. I lose track of some of the inanity around here.
