Once again, the ShiurTimes has seen fit to include three of my cartoons in its latest issue, which kind of makes up for being excluded from their newest feature, a list of staff and contributors complete with mini-bios (it's on the last page, and at the bottom there's a Menachem G. Jerenberg-sized empty space. Win some, lose some.)


To get back the bodies of two soldiers, whose kidnapping (and murder, although that was unknown at the time) by Hizbullah launched the Second Lebanon War, Israel released some Palestinian prisoners, four Hizbullah terrorists, about 200 soldiers' bodies, and the linchpin of the deal: Samir Kuntar, one of the biggest scumbags in the Israeli prison system, who was welcomed back with massive celebrations.


Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert is currently under scrutiny in six separate investigations, which must be some sort of record. The "Doc" is a caricature of Sigmund Freud.


Olmert called former political ally Tzipi Livni a "backstabbing liar" after she publicly called for him to be ousted from office. It takes one to know one, bub.
