Diplomacy



A visual response to the major humanitarian disaster at Qana in southern Lebanon where 50 people, largely women and children have died after a building collapsed on them following an Israeli bombing raid.

I chose to draw this in a sort of triptych - or three panel display - to try and show the inconsistency in the position of the American administration, which still likes to pretend it is a neutral power broker in the region.

Sadly, in other news this week, it has become clear that the bunker busting weapons, perhaps responsible for these deaths, are currently being shipped to the Israeli airforce from the US, via the UK.

Needless to say, the idiots in Hezbollah are still firing missiles at the Israelis.
