LITTLE GREEN FOOTBALLS 8/4/2003: Echoes of Nazism When I saw this cartoon by Tony Auth a few days ago: <http://homepage.mac.com/cfj/.Pictures/tony-auth-cartoon.gif> I wrote: "Cartoons like this, not seen in the West since the bad old days of Julius Streicher and Der Stuermer, are getting more and more common." When I wrote that, I was simply repelled by what seemed to me to be obvious, gut-churning antisemitism. But I didn't realize how appropriate my comment was, until I saw what Mike Silverman discovered yesterday: a Nazi propaganda cartoon from the mid-1930s: <http://homepage.mac.com/cfj/.Pictures/nazicartoon.jpg> There's no way to know whether Tony Auth was aware of this Nazi cartoon when he drew his own version of it. But the similarity is eerie, and utterly appalling. littlegreenfootballs.com
