France's CSA Broadcast Authority has officially ordered French-based companies to ban the Al-Aksa television station of Hamas from broadcasting using their satellites. The order followed a warning from the European Commission, which told France to stop allowing the hate filled broadcasts on its Eutelsat satellite.
The CSA has taken similar steps regarding other terrorist channels, and previously banned Hizbullah's Al-Manar TV and issued a warning to the Saudi channel Iqraa... Al-Aksa first gained international attention due to organizations such as Palestinian Media Watch and Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), which followed the show and provided translations of its content. The station became notorious in 2007 when it used a character styled on the popular American cartoon Mickey Mouse to promote terrorism and anti-Semitism; the character, Farfur, was later depicted being beaten to death by Israelis.
