- Description
An American Uncle Sam figure stands on top of a great mound of corpses from Afghanistan, Iraq and Palestine and rants against the violence in Syria. He holds a small barking dog that represents New Zealand and shouts that 'NZ joins us in condemning the ongoing violence in Syria -'. Context: Condemnation is coming from around the world against the violence in Syria as troops loyal to President Bashar al-Assad attack people protesting against his regime. The cartoon suggests hypocrisy on the part of the United States in its condemnation of the Syrian situation because of the number of controversial wars it has waged. But New Zealand also is hypocritical since we have always sent troops to support the United States.
