Anti-Israel cartoon infuriates American Jews

Jewish groups in the US have labeled a cartoon condemning Israel's three-week attack on the population of Gaza as "hideously anti-Semitic"

The cartoon by Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Patrick "Pat" Oliphant portrays a headless, jack-booted figure marching in a goose step with a sword in one hand while pushing a Star of David on a wheel with the other.

The Jewish Star has fangs and is chasing after a woman carrying a child, labeled "Gaza".

The Simon Wiesenthal Center, an LA-based Jewish human rights group, on Thursday said the cartoon denigrates and demonizes Israel and mimics the Nazi propaganda.

"It is cartoons like this that inspired millions of people to hate in the 1930s and help set the stage for the Nazi genocide," Wiesenthal Center officials said in a statement.

The group has called on The New York Times and other media groups to remove the cartoon from their websites and has sent a message to Oliphant's cartoon distributor, Universal Press Syndicate.

After the creation of Israel in 1948 in the Middle East, the Star of David, has become a symbol of Israel and is associated with the Zionist movement.

Buhahaha....how fcuted up is that. Why is that these people always keep on playing the holoucast card. Haven't they gotten enough symphaty votes for it already. They can bloody well go a carry on their own personal genocide and when someone highlights it. They play the holoucast card. " but, see we were victims long ago aswell ". Man please stop using that as a crutch and justification for all the atrocities against mankind you commit.
