Editorial Cartoon by Graeme MacKay, The Hamilton Spectator – Friday March 7, 2003

Hollywood’s Anti-War Mobilization

Singer Sheryl Crowe’s wears a “War Is Not the Answer” T-shirt.

Actor Sean Penn has made a trip to Baghdad to discover for himself how Iraqis deal with their day-to-day lives after 12 years of UN sanctions on the country. 

Fellow actress Anjelica Houston says: “I speak out as a proud American. I praise the struggle to maintain the openness and just spirit that has been the mark of a democratic America. I speak out with the loud voice that my conscience demands of me.” 

They are just three Hollywood personalities who are taking a very public stand against war. 

But this – as far as some are concerned – is just spittle flying in the public eye. 

And they are being slammed as anti-American — even “Taliban”. 

Martin Sheen, who plays the US President in the Emmy-award winning series “The West Wing,” is the chief spokesman of the anti-war coalition. (Source: Hamilton Spectator)

Please note…

This website contains satirical commentaries of current events going back several decades. Some readers may not share this sense of humour nor the opinions expressed by the artist. To understand editorial cartoons it is important to understand their effectiveness as a counterweight to power. It is presumed readers approach satire with a broad minded foundation and healthy knowledge of objective facts of the subjects depicted.
