This cartoon is closer to reality than the fake news put out by the
"Mainstream Media" on 9/11.

It recalls Alan Sabrosky's shocking Press TV Interview on Israel and 9/11:

The Anglo-American Establishment is finally realizing that Israel and
the Sunni states (Saudi Arabia, Turkey) are on the "other side" from us,
enmeshing us in endless wars in the Middle East.

The failure of Turkey and the Saudis to help contain Islamic State has
been an eye-opener; but Israel's takeover of East Jerusalem, inflaming
the Moslems over Al Aqsa mosque and the Dome of the Rock, is the last straw.

Israeli Cartoon Shows Bibi as a 9/11 Terrorist

By Anne Cohen

Today in things in poor taste: A Haaretz cartoon by Amos Biderman
showing one Bibi Netanyahu, flying an Israel plane into an American
building. Subtle. <http://www.haaretz.com/daily-cartoon/.premium-1.623521>

I guess people who lost a loved one on 9/11 will just have to get past
that boring old thing called grief in the interest of depicting
political tension.

Amos Biderman Says 'Never Imagined' Storm Over Satire

By Forward Staff

Published October 30, 2014.

Israeli cartoonist Amos Biderman stood by his an explosive work that
depicts Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu flying a plane towards the
World Trade Center.

Biderman, the political cartoonist for the liberal Haaretz newspaper,
said he “never imagined” the harsh reaction to the terror-themed cartoon
but pointedly refused to apologize in an article published on its web site.

“It was certainly not my intention to insult or upset anyone,” Biderman
told Haaretz. “I wasn’t sufficiently aware of the great sensitivity that
9/11 holds for Americans.”

The article did not quote any Haaretz editors and the work remained on
the paper’s web site, suggesting Biderman’s bosses back his explanation.

Biderman insisted his cartoon was fair criticism of Netanyahu, who he
claims has damaged relations with the U.S.

“I was mocking Bibi,” he said. “He’s been acting like a bull in a china
shop with the United States, which is Israel’s most important strategic
asset.”

Biderman noted that he has often grappled with controversial issues in
his work — and refuses to censor himself even when he knows many readers
may object.

“I have drawn cartoons depicting every war that Israel has fought,
including the Yom Kippur War – which I was involved in – where we
suffered thousands of casualties. I have used some of Israel’s greatest
tragedies as the background for my cartoon(s). .. . I never imagined
that by using an image that evoked 9/11 I would cause such a storm.”

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 31, 2014 AS OF 8:34 PM EDT

The left-leaning Israeli newspaper Haaretz published a political cartoon
Thursday that shows Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu flying a plane
into a building that is meant to represent the World Trade Center.

Haaretz Daily Cartoon - 30/10/14

The cartoon was published on a page on the newspaper's website. Below
the cartoon, the outlet wrote "U.S.-Israel tensions: The crisis with
Washington is here to stay" and linked to a story about the state of
affairs between the two countries.

The political cartoon was published one day after a senior Obama
administration officials called Netanyahu a "chickensh-t," in an
interview with the Atlantic, referring to the prime minister's ability
to broker peace with Palestinians. That same senior official called
Netanyahu a "coward" when it came to Iran.

The relationship between the U.S. and Israel is sliding into what many
are calling a full-blown crisis. Jeffrey Goldberg, the author who
originally published the "chickensh-t" quote in the Atlantic,wrote in
his article that the comment from the official is "representative of the
gloves-off manner in which American and Israeli officials now talk about
each other behind closed doors. The relationship between these two
administrations ... is now the worst it's ever been," Goldberg wrote.

Israel announced this week its intention to create more settlements in
East Jerusalem, angering some U.S. senior politicians.

"The United States is deeply concerned by reports the Israeli government
has moved forward" with planning for settlements in a "sensitive area"
of east Jerusalem, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said earlier
this month. The U.N. political chief Jeffrey Feltman said that the
settlements would raise doubts about Israel's plans to create peace with
the Palestinians.
