Too Cute

How to destroy the opposition.

James ‘Best of the Web Today’ Taranto points out a superb cartoon by Jim Borgman.

I just hope the guy in the turban isn’t mistaken by the Cartoon Jihadi as Mohammed.

The ‘funny’ thing is that the first panel depicts a Afghani woman getting a letter telling her she has been given a scholarship to Yale. Hey! Isn’t that where the former propaganda minister for the Taliban is ‘currently’ going to school? What did he do? Seize the letter because women aren’t good enough to go to such an institution of higher learning?

The REALLY funny thing is that this cartoon is dated 2001.

  1. "Burn their laws and destroy their prisons, kill the hangmen, the bane of mankind. Smash authority! Call to your ranks the press-ganged army; there are many killers in the army who are against you and who are bribed to kill you. But there are friends for you even in the army. They will confound the mobs of murderers and will hurry to your side.”

    “Man is only free if he is prepared to kill every hangman and every power magnate if they do not wish to stop their shameful tasks.”
