PA Ridicules US Sniper Emergency
By Itamar Marcus

Introduction:

The ridicule of American suffering continues in the Palestinian Authority
[PA]. Following the gleeful political cartoons laughing at American fears on
9-11, the PA now uses the suffering of Americans from a serial sniper as the
inspiration for its new political attacks on the US. In todays cartoon in Al
Ayyam, the Palestinians coin George Bush "The Washington Sniper" shooting at
an outline of Iraq.

Palestinians portray George Bush, taking aim at Iraq, as the merciless US
serial sniper.
