Pat Oliphant cartoon gets ire of Abe Foxman:
The ADL’s director called the syndicated cartoon, published Wednesday and reprinted below, “hideously anti-Semitic.”
“Pat Oliphant’s outlandish and offensive use of the Star of David in combination with Nazi-like imagery is hideously anti-Semitic,” Abraham Foxman said in a statement released Wednesday. “It employs Nazi imagery by portraying Israel as a jack-booted, goose-stepping headless apparition. The implication is of an Israeli policy without a head or a heart.”
But if it was a giant stone ISRAEL crushing a little Arab woman with "Gaza" on her dress, Foxman would still be angry. You can't win with Abe unless it's a Chuck Norris-kills-a-million-Arab-hijackers-(played-by -Indian-guys) movie.
