Rachel Corrie Cartoon Controversy
Some background:
Rachel Corrie was a college student from Washington State who was a member of an organization called the International Soliditary Movement. She was participating as a "human shield" in a protest on the Gaza Strip. She stood in the way of a bulldozer that was about to wreck a Palestinian home and was apparently crushed to death.
This cartoon appeared yesterday in the University of Maryland's student newspaper and many people are offended by it.
Do you think it's offensive? Why or why not?
