Just think if there was a gay Hamas male combatant who went around killing innocent people because he believed he would be rewarded 61 male virgins, this cartoonist would have the Devil give him females.

That's all the TOON was about, not getting what you expected.

Then this EDITORIAL CARTOONIST is probably is Israel's court, not Hamas. Do cartoonists have first amendment rights?

And it used homophobia to do it, which is a shit move.

"aloha snackbar" is gross?
Yeah, it is.

I didn't even look at the rest of the "funny cartoons" because of the bigotry in the first one. Jesus. Talk about feeling unwelcomed.
