Can Disney sue Hamas for their illegal copying of Mickey Mouse?


intellectual property infringement or something like that...

Absolutely yes.... but they haven't... the question is why not... they normally defend their product like a bear defending her cubs. They will haul a small Mom & Pop operation to trial for even the slightest infringement... But Mom & Pop aren't likely to strap a bomb to a child and send it into one of their theme parks.

Just what we need....After it got filed in court, we would have to worry about suicide bombers on "Mainstreet U.S.A."

I would say that if Disney made an attempt to sue, that would be a compliment to Hamas. The copying of Mickey Mouse is very poor at best and ignoring the issue would be an insult in itself.

It wouldn't do them any good . Hamas isn't going to abide by any court ruling.
