Jewish Forward Spoof on Gaza

Link to spoof of Extreme Makeover. Is this over the line? I do not think anyone would argue that people are not allowed to make fun of themselves but when it is something like this and it involves such a tense situation is this over the line? In the case of the Danish comics a few years ago that incensed the entire Muslim world it was very contentious to have an outsider "making fun of" something which is clearly a sensitive issue. While the rest of the Backward (it is the spoof version of the Jewish Daily Forward, the premier Jewish news source in the United States) is much more tame and self-deprecating, this seems to toe the line a little bit. What do you guys think?
