Just when you thought anti-Israel propaganda couldn’t get much more ridiculous, along comes this story of how the evil Jewish soldiers (yup, the kid got sloppy and said the J word) captured his chicken.
Bonus: Due to Quds News Network’s poor English, it sounds like they charmed his girlfriend!
A video of an interview with a Lebanese child called Hussein, talking about his chick, which has been captivated by the Israeli army and demanding to get it back, trended on social media on Tuesday.
In the video, Hussein Sharatouni (9 years old), from Mays Al Jabal in Southern Lebanon near the borders with occupied Palestine, says that when he opened the door of the chicken coop, his chick, which his father has baught for him only one day before the accident, ran away.
“When I tried to feed it, it ran away there (pointing at the border)”, says hussein. “When I chased it to catch it, the Israelis started shooting at the sky.”
Then the interviewer asks Hussein if he felt scared, but the 9-year-old boy says, “no, I did not”. “Why?”, asks the interviewer. “I wasn’t scared because I wanted my chick!”, Hussein answers.
The video ends with the child calling for the Israeli army to return his chick.
The hashtag #Free_Husseins_chick in Arabic trended in Lebanon on Twitter. Several accounts mocked the Israeli army for “arresting” a chick and being scared of a child, who was chasing his chick, while others linked the incident with demands to release all those held inside Israeli jails.

This entire story reminds me of what Avram, Gene Wilder’s character in the Frisco Kid, said
Chicken, chicken, chicken! Chickie-chickie-chickie-chicken! Come here,
I don’t want to hurt you, I just want to eat you.
