Response:
In this political
cartoon , it is obvious that the artist has a very strong opinion on what
actions should be taken against ISIS. He has labeled the two pictures,
"Cancer" and the other "Surgery", showing that IS is an
infectious disease that needs drastic measures to heal or get rid of. In the
picture to the right he shows a bomb hurdling towards a crowd of people and the
bomb has the American flag on it. The artist is clearly portraying that he
believes the US needs to step up and heal the world of the IS and their
terrorism. He drew the man in the left photo holding a knife with an unseen man
with a gun, to show that although armed, their weapons are not as strong as
those of the US (bomb in right photo). Although, the US should take action,
they should be more cautious of how they handle the situation. If they run in
their like a hurdling bomb they may get hurt with the target.
