Bert and Osama.

You know those posters of Osama Bin Laden that protesters in Bangladesh are waving? Well, the collage of pictures of Bin Laden are culled from many sources including the internet.

One of the pictures obviously originated at the website "Bert is Evil", a site dedicated to exposing Bert from Sesame Street as the evil mastermind he is.

The original picture of Bert with Bin Laden has been pulled from the site out of respect for the victims of September 11th, but not before somebody downloaded it to make placards for anti-American demos.

This is priceless. Look over Bin Laden’s shoulder.

Here it is again. And again.

Remember to look for this next time you’re watching news coverage of these demonstrations.
