Letter: Cartoon unfair to Palestinians

Monday, April 15, 2002 | 8:50 a.m.

I am appalled and angered by the racist and crude cartoon by Mike Smith in the April 11 paper. The cartoon implies that every Palestinian, Arab or Muslim is a terrorist, including the unborn children and their bearing mothers. I don't know if even Nazi Germany used this kind of filthy political propaganda to instigate hatred against the Jews during the Holocaust.

The cartoon simply justifies the massacres committed by Ariel Sharon against the civilian populations in the Palestinian refugee camps and villages. Crimes of genocide and mass graves committed by the Israeli army as we speak, that your paper refuses to report or uncover. Your paper is far from being fair and objective in this conflict. Its blind support for Israel and condemnation of the Palestinian people is quite evident and despicable.
