- Description
Text reads 'News. Palestine appeals to the UN for statehood' and the cartoon shows a jury of Jewish citizens giving the thumbs down to the notion. The judge says 'Ladies and gentlemen of the jewry... have you reached a verdict?..' Below is a cameo showing a White House official with President Obama, who is also giving a thumbs down; the official says 'The timing's abumma Obama!' Context: The United States has traditionally for political reasons been very supportive of the state of Israel but now Palestine is asserting her right to statehood. Their application to the UNs Security Council, pencilled in for September 23rd, will be rebuffed by an American veto. But if they then go to the UN General Assembly, which seems likely sooner or later, the Palestinians will win an overwhelming majority. (The Economist September 24th 2011)
