I'm fairly certain Ramierez has repeatedly leaned on metaphors that represent the U.S as the indigenous people they genocided with the colonists as a stand in for some conservative boogeymam, possibly debt.

Rall: If Anyone Else Had Done This, Bombs Would Be Raining down

A long awaited report about the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, the Washington Post journalist who was butchered in a Saudi consulate in Istanbul, places the blame for the murder squarely on the ruling crown prince. If it were any other country, this would be an act of war.

Every other comic Rall does is about the cruel and monstrous stupidity of America's endless warfare in the Middle East and now he wants America to start some poo poo? Like I get his point that Saudi Arabia leadership gets away with a lot of poo poo that other Islamic countries don't but "we should nuke Saudi Arabi" is not the best way to illustrate that.

I dunno it seems like he really wants us to go a lot harder on any Islamic nation than we basically ever have.

Perhaps his problem with Iraq was not that we levelled the country for bullshit reasons, but that we didn't make sure it glowed, too.

That's not what he's arguing, he's arguing that the Demopublican cabal would have reacted like that if it wasn't Saudi Arabia. Which is silly hyperbole, and he seems to think that countries should just overnight turn 180º on their allies if any single diplomatic incident happens.

Rall's main problem, aside from an inability to draw, is that he likes to show how everyone is guilty of bad, dishonest policies. But he never proposes a better policy, which makes him seem dishonest and clueless as well.

P.S. And what happened to Skull Biden?

Katznelson was well known for his desire for peaceful coexistence between Arabs and Jews in Israel. He was an outspoken opponent of the Peel Commission's partition plan for Palestine. He stated:

quote:

I do not wish to see the realization of Zionism in the form of the new Polish state with Arabs in the position of the Jews and the Jews in the position of the Poles, the ruling people. For me this would be the complete perversion of the Zionist ideal... Our generation has been witness to the fact that nations aspiring to freedom who threw off the yoke of subjugation rushed to place this yoke on the shoulders of others. Over the generations in which we were persecuted and exiled and slaughtered, we learned not only the pain of exile and subjugation, but also contempt for tyranny. Was that only a case of sour grapes? Are we now nurturing the dream of slaves who wish to reign?

Yeah, it's possible that they're a deep cover secret lefty trying to break in by making the group look bad in a way that the group doesn't recognise. It's also equally possible that they're trying to do the Stonetoss thing of being shared around as triple-irony Kelly cartoons while getting their real message, which is the face message of the cartoon, out to folks to rile them up. Both of those options would produce exactly the same work, and given that they've done guest comics for complete loving shitheads like pumpkinface, it's safer to assume the latter.

Incidentally, pumpkinface is extremely easy to rile up on Twitter and will make a comic about you committing suicide if you do so. I'd know! He made one about me!

WHAT’S THAT SMELL?

Five women have now come forward accusing New York Governor Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment. It’s getting harder and harder for the Fake News Media to ignore Cuomo’s growing scandal. The media ignored Cuomo’s nursing home deaths but could be willing to cover the sexual harassment story in order to distract from the 15,000 plus nursing home deaths the “Grim Groper” has caused.

Both the New York Senate Majority leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins and the State Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie, have called on Governor Cuomo to resign. Of course Cuomo is saying the calls for him to resign are “anti-democratic.”

Democrats finally called for Cuomo to resign after five women came forward to accuse the “Grabbin’ Gov” of sexual abuse. Where were they when he sentenced tens of thousands of elderly nursing home residents to death?

“Pepe Le Pew” is just a romantic skunk in search of love, a funny cartoon skunk from the 1940s. Cancel Culture idiots are targeting Le Pew claiming he normalizes “rape culture.” I will repeat, he is a C A R T O O N !

“Cuomo Le Pew” is a 63 year old narcissistic man who has a history of harassing women. He embraces “rape culture.” His stench of abuse and disrespect of women has corrupted his whole office and he is unfit to serve as Governor.

Will the Grim Groper resign? How many women claiming sexual harassment will it take? What ever happens, there is no way Cuomo will be elected to a fourth term as New York Governor.
