The problem isn’t the cartoons, it’s the anti-Semitism in the cartoons.
Via NY Post:
The Israeli ambassador to the U.S. on Monday blasted the New York Times as a “cesspool of hostility towards Israel” — as the newspaper said it has suspended publishing syndicated cartoons after they published an anti-Semitic drawing provided by a wire service.
Ambassador Ron Dermer made the strong rebuke at a Holocaust memorial event at the U.S. Capitol Monday morning.
“We have also seen one of the world’s most prestigious newspapers become a cesspool of hostility towards Israel that goes well beyond any legitimate criticism of a fellow, imperfect democracy,” Dermer said in his remarks. “The same New York Times that a century ago mostly hid from their readers the Holocaust of the Jewish people has today made its pages a safe-space for those who hate the Jewish state,” he added.
