Jeff Dunham: Achmed the Dead Terrorist (2007)

Achmed is the skeletal corpse of an incompetent suicide bomber, whom Dunham uses to satirize the contemporary issue of terrorism. He is known for yelling, "Silence! I kill you!" to Dunham and people laughing in the audience. Achmed first appeared in Spark of Insanity, and later made an appearance in the Very Special Christmas Special, singing a song called "Jingle Bombs". He also dubs the so-called Guitar Guy "You racist bastard"! for warming up with typical Arab chords. As of June 2009, the sketch in which Dunham introduced Achmed is the fourth most watched online video ever, having amassed nearly 200 million views.

Some have accused Dunham's characters of being racist caricatures, sexist, and homophobic. (..) Dunham responded, "I've skewered whites, blacks, Hispanics, Christians, Jews, Muslims, gays, straights, rednecks, addicts, the elderly, and my wife. As a standup comic, it is my job to make the majority of people laugh, and I believe that comedy is the last true form of free speech." He further commented, "I'm considering renaming Achmed, 'Bill.'"

AS I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH
I CAN’T SLEEP LIKE I’M BATTLING METH
THE REAPER CREEPS WHILE I’M GASPING FOR BREATH
I ASK THE LORD TO FORGIVE ME FOR DEBT
WHEN DEATH COMES AND MY SOUL LEAVES MY BODY TO REST

All our times have come
Here, but now they’re gone
Seasons don’t fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun, or the rain (We can be like they are)

Come on, baby (Don’t fear the reaper)
Baby, take my hand (Don’t fear the reaper)
We’ll be able to fly (Don’t fear the reaper)
Baby, I’m your man

La la la la la
La la la la la

Valentine is done
Here, but now they’re gone
Romeo and Juliet
Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women every day (Like Romeo and Juliet)
40,000 men and women every day (Redefine happiness)
Another 40,000 coming every day (We can be like they are)

Come on, baby (Don’t fear the reaper)
Baby, take my hand (Don’t fear the reaper)
We’ll be able to fly (Don’t fear the reaper)
Baby, I’m your man

La la la la la
La la la la la

Love of two is one
Here, but now they’re gone
Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn’t go on
The door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew and then disappeared
The curtains flew and then he appeared (Saying don’t be afraid)

Come on, baby (And she had no fear)
And she ran to him (Then they started to fly)
They looked backward and said goodbye (She had become like they are)
She had taken his hand (She had become like they are)
Come on, baby (Don’t fear the reaper)

The issues surrounding how children understand and respond to death have profound implications for their healthy development into adulthood. Multiple factors influence their cognitive understanding of death, including chronological age and developmental capacity. How well they will cope constructively with losses in childhood is a complex combination of internal and external forces, with important implications for professionals and parents.
Scholarly commentary on children’s understanding of, and reactions to, death reaches back to the 1930s and 1940s, with the publications of Paul Schilder and David Wechsler, Sylvia Anthony, and Maria Nagy. How and when children develop a mature understanding of the finality of death, how their reactions and responses differ from those of adults, and what methodologies best accommodate them in healthy grieving are topics that have received increasing interest in the research and clinical communities in the past 3 decades.
