Clash of Civilizations: Deplorable Racism and Misogyny at Egyptian Newspaper

February 22nd, 2007 12:18 AM

Al-Ahram is an Egyptian newspaper founded in 1828, and apparently is the second-oldest daily in the Arab world. Recently, it published the following absolutely horrible cartoon (h/t LGF):

                                              

For those that can stand it, the caption at the top reads (please be advised that this is pretty offensive): “‘Hillary’ and ‘Obama’A Woman and a Negro are Participating in the Campaign for the American Presidency

The religious man in the foreground is saying: "This is another sign of the collapse of the Western civilization"

How disgraceful. Regardless, it seems quite unlikely that Americans will start riots and burn down our cities as a result of this disgusting display.
