Deleted Al Jazeera Cartoons

[Kurai Tsuki]

These are two cartoons from Al Jazeera's English website (http://english.aljazeera.net) that were deleted after a State Department official called them inflamatory. I had already posted them in the Middle East Political Cartoons thread but then decided they really deserved a thread all to themselves.

Maybe there's something you need to download. Can anybody else see them?

[ÑóẊîöʼn]

I can see them, but I don't see what's so inflammatory about them.

I was expecting something very radical! These are not. Cliched.
Pritty crap actually

[Kurai Tsuki]

What we consider to be radical would probably be considered extremist by mainstream America.

i still cant see them, what do you think i need to download?

[Kurai Tsuki]

I'm not sure, if you visit the Al Jazeera english website and view their cartoons they will most likely tell you what needs to be downloaded for you to see them.

I don't think you need to download anything, they're .gif files. What are you getting, a square with a red x?

[Pawn Power]

i guess some people could say their offensive

Hey! Those are pretty good. GOOD JOB, AL-JAZEERA!

[rahul]

good pics!

are they painted by someone?

They're true. The one that showed the immigrants was very accurate, since that's something that happens a lot here. They go to other countries and tell these people if they join the military and go to war they'll be able to get their citizenship, and most of the time they end up dying.
