Final cartoon from We are all Palestinians series (by Latuff)


Everyday, during the last 7 days, I had made and published on many IMC web sites (along a link to International Campaign for Justice for the Victims of Sabra & Shatila) exclusive cartoons related to different moments of recent World History:

Black people after U.S. Civil War, South-African black people in apartheid days, South-Vietnamese civilians during Vietnam War, Tibetans under Chinese rule, Native Americans facing U.S. Cavalry, Natives from Chiapas facing Mexican troops and finally Warsaw Ghetto.

It's not an objective work, like others I am used to make. Such images can raise doubts, conclusions, thoughts, feelings, in short, it was made for you to think about.

That's why I will not to rend any comments. Please, look thoroughly at these images and judge it for yourself.

Here are links to other cartoons from the series. High resolution versions for printing purposes are available by email request. Feel free to forward and reproduce it.

Actually noname - I think the whole point is he ISNT being anti semetic, by pointing out the similarities between the oppression of others and the oppression of Palestinians - he removes the idea of it being against a certain race by another race and makes it the oppression of the weak by the strong. It is not anti semetic it is anti the people in Israel who think that killing people and stealing their land is a good idea.
Much in the same way that saying
"Black people are vicious murdering bastards" is racist
but saying "some people working for President Mugabi are vicious murdering bastards" is true
Saying "Jews are murdering land stealing bastards" is racist and antisemtic
but saying "Some people working for president Sharon are murdering land stealing bastards" is true

It is a sad truth that every race, country, religion contains people within it who are bastards (as in not nice people - I really dont care if your parents were married or not when you were born)
And it is very important that when they are - we tell them they are!
