Spain – An Antisemitic Caricature in El-Periodico


On 6th February 2004, the newspaper El-Periodico published a caricature in which Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is depicted wearing a skullcap and dragging a cart in which there are several settlers. Sharon tells them that he is interested in playing up to Bush in order to get additional funds from him to broaden the roads. (A paper is sticking out of his pocket with the words “Road Map” written on it). In the right-hand corner of the caricature three figures can be seen in traditional ultra-orthodox garb who are calling out to Sharon: “Don’t touch us – the settlers”.
