Anti-Semitism  
Anti-Semitic Incitement:
Political Cartoons in the Arab Media.
RULE
August 2002


This group of cartoons plays on several anti-Semitic themes. The first two show a Jewish caricature manipulating the US. In this case, the cartoonist indicates that Iraq is to be destroyed  for the benefit of the Jews.  In the other cartoons, Jews are shown acting like Nazis, standing on piles of bloody corpses and using the charge of anti-Semitism to justify brutal treatment of Palestinians.


US Shown doing the bidding of  Jews. The Arabic, above the man says: "Iraq's leadership".
 

This time the U.S. is hooking Iraq to server up to the Jews.

Jewish actions are clearly equated with those of the Nazis

 

As the Israeli figure(possibly Ariel Sharon) -- wearing what appears to be an Uncle Sam hat -- stabs the Palestinian, he says:  Even if you say 'ai' (a word which has no meaning), I will blame you with anti-Semitism".

 

Here the stereotypical Jewish caricature stands atop a pile of dead, bleeding bodies
