Syrian Cartoonist Akram Raslan Reported Dead by Damascus News Agency
September 22, 2015 in General
Tragically, it appears yet another cartoonist has died at the hands of an oppressive and brutal regime. News reports filtering out of Syria sound grim. More on this awful story can be found on the CRNI website.

The worst was long feared, perhaps even expected but that doesn’t make the formal confirmation any less upsetting.

Absolutely, Terry, especially when you compare Akram Raslan’s fate – for cartooning authority – with Ted Rall banging on and on about whether or not he was handcuffed for jaywalking. Try jaywalking in Damascus.
