Latuff is anti-Semitic, according IMC NYC moderator

Latuff | 28.08.2003 20:56

Now it's clear why Israeli bus cartoon was "hidden" on IMC NYC. It's anti-Semitic, according anonymous moderator. In his/her own words: "You've been banned from the Indymedia's of three different countries, though unfortunately not NYC, for your perceived anti-semitism."

Jews control the world?

You once posted a cartoon in which an orthodox Jew was pulling the strings on a puppet earth and puppet US president. Given that anti-semetism is generally the invention of and belief in the idea of Jews controlling the world and being conspirators, I'd consider that anti-semetic. As to your other stuff, its pretty extreme, seemingly taking pleasure from the murder of Jews in Israel, and also soldiers in Iraq, who, it might be useful for the left (especially the anarchist left as most of IndyMedia is anarchist as far as I can tell), are ordinary, mostly ordinary working class and coloured people (armies do all their recruiting in poor areas with high unemployment etc), and are being murdered by Islamic fundamentalists and Ba'athists fascists, who clearly are not the friends of the Iraqi people, even if some of them support the actions.

A bit of background digging will tell anyone that the arguement about Latuff's work on NYC IMC is completely bogus. NYC IMC have been censoring pro-isreali post for sometime and have recieved loads of flack from both free speechers and zionoists. The pulling of the recent cartoon depicting and israeli bus as a coffin was in response to actual/percieved pressure form these groups, i.e. we'll be fare and censor both sides (as Latuff ahs been branded an anti semite by zionists)...
in other words the censorship is in response to the mess created over a period of time by zealous NYC moderators.

Ask yourself the question...why have IMC israel never censored Latuff??? and if he is an anti-semite how come israeli peace group Gush-Shalom, have used his work since 1998.

pig slaughter in Iraq

I make mistakes so I know all too well that Lauff can easily make mistakes.

Blaming Jews for the worlds problems is not OK ...atleast writeup something to backup your drawings, Latuff.
Maybe it might be a good idea for Latuff to apologise and move on.

But....blaming pigs is OK. Keep those ones coming.

The idiot who complains about the excellent cartoons on invading pigs being slaughtered in Iraq is a pig.

who exactly are pigs???

Israel IMC probably hasn't labelled Laftuff anti-semetic because they haven't see his Jew-pulling-strings-on-puppet-world cartoon. And ram, in case you haven't realised, the US/UK soldiers in Iraq are mostly working class disproportionately minority people who have been tricked/forced (economically) into joining the army. And the people killing them are islamic fundamentalists and saddam fascists. They should revolt just like everyone else. And btw ram, who exactly is not a pig? Is everyone on IMC a pig, because the war wasn't stopped? Is every westerner a pig because through ignorance/laziness their governments getaway with so much? Were Soviet Citizens pigs because they didn't revolt on a mass scale and allowed their government to take over eastern europe?

Working class mumbo jumbo

Working class diproportionately minority tricked to kill ...WTF?

This is the kind of meaningless hollow rhetoric that forces me to introduce the concept of 'piggism' so the blame for the sorry global state of affairs can be pinpointed to the mass murderors!

Anyway pigs as defined by me are not just the amrned thugs roaming Iraq but much more wider as you suggest. At the same time I would like to remind you that sneaking in a racist implication (ie, white westerners only are pigs is not fair ... I do not subscribe to such racist theories although most pigs are from western countries or after western values)

What I can do to alleviate your doubts is to provide a link to the image 'pigs at work' ...to highlight the current flow of mass murder ...

The image is still not upoaded ... remeber 'patience is a virtue'

I upload a duplicate here too
