Grotesque, offensive cartoon depicts Netanyahu's grotesque, offensive anti-Palestine polices:

 "First of all I am not, and never have been, antisemitic," Scarfe said. "The Sunday Times has given me the freedom of speech over the last 46 years to criticise world leaders for what I see as their wrong-doings. This drawing was a criticism of Netanyahu, and not of the Jewish people: there was no slight whatsoever intended against them. I was, however, stupidly completely unaware that it would be printed on Holocaust day, and I apologise for the very unfortunate timing."

... "Steve Bell, cartoonist for the Guardian, defended Scarfe: "For once, this wasn't a bad cartoon. The problem with the state of Israel and the Zionist lobby is that they never acknowledge the crime of ethnic cleansing on which the state was founded.""
