Text: "Rice speaks about birth of a new Middle East." Al-Quds, July 24, 2006
|
August 1, 2006 - This cartoon appeared in the Palestinian daily newspaper Al Quds on July 24. Its ugly racism needs no comment.
In the Palestinian press Condoleezza Rice and other black politicians are often referred to by their skin color in a disparaging manner. Another Palestinian daily had this to say about Ms. Rice: "Beware this 'black spinster'; we don't want to say 'the black widow' out of respect for her femininity and her intelligence" (Al-Ayyam, June 22, 2003).
Do you think we will ever see a U.N. resolution equating Palestinian anti-Western hatred with racism?
