Unicef, the United Nations Children's Fund is set to be broadcasting on national television next week a campaign advertisement in Belgium that features smurfs playing and singing and then....."the blue-skinned cartoon characters' village is annihilated by warplanes."
"Tiny Smurfs scatter and run in vain from the whistling bombs, before being felled by blast waves and fiery explosions. The final scene shows a scorched and tattered Baby Smurf sobbing inconsolably, surrounded by prone Smurfs.
The final frame bears the message: "Don't let war affect the lives of children."
uhhh.....ok. Could this be any weirder?
