So the 500 lb. trailer park resident in the motor-scooter at Walmart sucking down 64 oz. Diet Cokes is about to hit the jackpot? Color me impressed.

I can see how the cartoon is inappropriate. A Star of David references Judaism as a whole. It paints an entire religion as the perpetrators of bad acts that can only reasonably be laid at the feet of Netanyahu's Israeli government. An Israeli flag might be more appropriate, but it would still be painting ordinary Israeli citizens with too broad of a brush.

On the flip side, the military controlled by Nethanyahu's government seems to be painting all Gaza citizens as targets, regardless of affiliation with Hamas or lack thereof. This stance sucks and is evil.

Killing innocent people like Hamas and Israel have is a clear ethical failure. Fomenting culture-wide hatred of a group in a way that encourages future killing of innocent people like Hamas and Israel have is also an ethical failure.

Harvard was right to condemn the cartoon, but there is no real good guy here.

On the plus side, if the Foot Clan attacks, you'll have easy access to allies.
