Story Highlights:
# Children in 120 countries watch some version of "Sesame Street"
# Sesame is trying to use that following to foster a culture of understanding
# The Palestinian version is called "Shara'a Simsim"
# Show creators say it offers Palestinian children an alternative to propaganda
Jim Henson would be proud. :)
