Amazing teaching tool for my young daughter – Israeli Heroes Review

My daughter is five years old and therefore incapable of understanding the many nuances of the politics of religion in the middle east. Thankfully, this game exists. By reducing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to the simple image of cheerful, smiling Israeli missiles blowing the heck out of ragheaded bombs with angry yellow eyes, my daughter finally understands the justifications for bombing the Gaza strip and surrounding settlements: They are full of deadly evil explosive heathens! Once I downloaded this game onto her otterboxed ipad, she pretty quickly became a supporter of Israel. Who can deny that the smiling missiles are the good guys? However, I have reduced the score to four stars because the game is very derivative of Angry Birds and offers little in the way of environments for bombing (the only real setting is desert.) Also, by placing the terrorist bombs inside crappy little houses that fall apart at the slightest nudge, it gives the impression that the terrorist bombs are minding their own business trying to live in crappy little shacks that barely qualify as homes, only venturing outside to retaliate against the bombs constantly being lobbed at them, which is preposterous.
