Title
The title refers to
Funny Games from director Michael Haneke. We used our own Funny Games in a broader context where violence and war are used as a means to resolve political conflicts.
Funny Games
Each game represents a country
1. US/Iran
2. Palestine/Israel
3. Darfur/Darfur
Conflict zone
These games are incompatible because they have their own set of rules. You cannot play Tetris on a football pitch or Pong game on a Tennis court. Which leads us to the reason(s) why they are facing each other in the first place.
0-0
Try playing tennis with a bomb instead of a ball and wait to see on which side it will explode. Unfortunately some world leaders are doing just that. They are playing funny games and we are the spectators.
Hint 1
The tennis racquets form the peace sign. 'Enjoy Division' is sending the wrong message.
Hint 2
If we knew then what we now know.
