 Title: Mideast gravestones
Published: Ventura County Star
Date: July 28, 2002
About this cartoon: Each week's news brings accounts of violence and bloodshed in the Mideast as each side carries out a reprisal for some previous death.
Noteworthy: Originally proposed for the Jewish Bulletin in San Francisco; they turned it down as being not sympathetic enough to the Israeli side given the moment's news (other Jewish newspapers did run this); one problem is that the news changes daily, so that one side might look more sympathetic on a given day but less so as a newspaper deadline rolls around.
