An Offensive Defense
🤔It sure doesn't look very defensive...
The Biden administration line about “Israel’s right to defend itself” is becoming more untenable with each passing day.
Besides the fact that we weren’t questioning Israel’s right to defend itself in the first place, now it’s getting much harder to look at killing over 30,000 Palestinians as a real strategy of self-defense.
Killing tens of thousands of women, children and innocent civilians doesn’t count as defending yourself, that’s offense.
Meanwhile, the Washington Post reported that the State Department,
“approved the transfer of more than 1,000 MK82 500-pound bombs, over 1,000 small-diameter bombs, and fuses for MK80 bombs”
. . . on the very same day Israel killed 7 aid workers with World Central Kitchen. (You can help WCK here.)
The Biden administration keeps talking a great game about humanitarian aid and applying pressure on Netanyahu . . . but the bombs keep coming.
Claims of Israel “defending itself” sound ludicrous amid blown up hospitals, starving children and an entire population driven to (and soon across?) the border with Egypt.
But I’m not the only one criticizing what Netanyahu is doing to Gaza and Israel — tens of thousands of Israelis recently held protests calling for his ouster.
You probably noticed a different style with this latest cartoon — it just felt right to create this on paper with ink and paint, I wanted it a little more raw and rough.
I filmed lots of time-lapse video of me inking and painting, so I’ll post more soon. In the meantime, here’s a little snippet.
Thanks so much for reading, watching and supporting my work!
