The editorial staff of the Hi Desert star claims that editorial cartoons do not represent the views of your newspaper. As a short term resident of Landers and new subscriber to your newspaper, I would like to believe you. Your argument is not unlike every other newspaper that cowardly hides liberal racist and anti-Semitic bullying behind such disclaimers. The cartoon in question is in the Saturday, July 12, 2014 issue of the Hi-Desert Star, a cartoon by Mike Luckovich.
What is with the cliff? Are the Jewish people not entitled or deserving of self defense? Are they obligated to accept the rein of rocket terror from Gaza as a condition of U.S. aid? The Jewish government will defend it’s people regardless of the cost or any supposed cliff, that kind of government ought to be respected by all fair minded newspapers. The principle would be respected by we the people if our government was so moved.
The question can only be answered over time, do you also print cartoons that speak the truth? As a newspaper, do you present the whole story? I shall be watching.
