War Cartoon Roundup, part 3
Cartoons I like (and some articles, too)
On civilian casualties and liberation: see The Boondocks, Keith Knight's th(ink), Stephanie McMillan's "Slaughter for Peace" and Jeff Danziger.
On war demonstrators, for and against: see The K Chronicles (this one is MANDATORY) and Ted Rall.
On journalism, fair and balanced: see The Boondocks, David Horsey, Rob Rogers and Ted Rall (this last one is required reading).
On George W.'s unwavering faith: see Ward Sutton.
On Dubya simultaneously sending American soldiers off to die for oil and CUTTING VETERANS' BENEFITS. You heard me. See Dan Wasserman and The American Prospect. And most especially, see Michael Bronski on supporting our troops ("Being There: Supporting our troops, short of bringing them home, begins with families, lovers, and friends who take the entire measure of soldiers’ lives. It also means reversing the US’s dismal record on meeting veterans’ real needs.")
On war and greed, among other things: see Ruben Bolling's Super-Fun-Pal Comix and Jeff Danziger.
On "we, uh, never said this war would be easy" even though they did: see Tom Tomorrow and Scott Bateman.
Cartoons that annoy the hell out of me
I'm not even going to bother with all the cartoons of Peter Arnett with his foot in his mouth (literally) or in bed with Saddam Hussein (literally). Not even worth reading.
Cartoons that incorporate racist caricature and non-existent connections between Saddam and Osama: see "Me and My Shadow." For an intelligent antidote to this cartoon, see Scott Bateman.
