Jewish Ethiopian Figurine

Photo is courtesy of Hayim Shtayer who bought this figurine in the Jewish Ethiopian community of Chatzrot Yasaf, caravan site in northern Israel, which was dismantled afterwards. The Lion of Judah and the six-pointed star are emblems of former Ethiopian emperor Haile Selassie, therefore it is not clear if the artist made this figurine because he was Ethiopian or because he was Jewish.

Serbian Anti-Masonic Stamp

This is one of four stamps issued by Yugoslavia on January 1, 1942  to mark the Grand Anti-Masonic Exhibition in Belgrade. These stamps show Yugoslavia  crushing the Masonic-Communist-Jewish plot to dominate the world… The above  stamp shows Masonry wearing an apron wuth the Star of David  bending in fear from a strong ray of light.

With A Little Help From My Friends

Currently I’m designing my new book and above you see its opening page. My Friend Dvorit Ben Shaul said that it looks like a Star of David. You have to imagine a triangle that goes down from the apex (to the word “no” on the left and to the word “or” on the right) and another one that goes from bottom to the edges of the book’s name.

It seems like I’m so absorbed in this emblem that it influences my page designs subconsciously…

Carlos Latuff, Jew Guevara

Photo of Star of David on the famous cap of South-American legendary revolutionist Che Guevara is courtesy of Brazilian anti-Israeli cartoonist Carlos Latuff who comments on his website that he made it:
On behalf of brave Jews, in Israel and worldwide, and their struggle against Israeli oppression of Palestinian people and occupation of their territories
Attaching a Star of David to a famous leader was used by WW2 German propaganda to deliver quite an opposite message: that the famous leader (i.e. Roosevelt) is a puppet of “the Jews”.

Carlos Latuff, Barbed Wire Star

Title:Israeli Apartheid

This is the first photo of a Barbed Wire Star of David published on this blog. Picture is courtesy of cartoonist Carlos Latuff. Concerning the Star of David itself it denies access, in this case, from the other side as well. It’s the deep meaning of this symbol not to take sides, or to take both sides.

From Wikipedia: Carlos Latuff is a freelance political cartoonist, born in November 30, 1968, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil… Latuff has authored several comics about Middle East situations such as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Iraq War, mainly highly critical towards Israel and the United States while sympathizing with their opposition… in 2004, Latuff has made a series of seven cartoons, called Forgiveness, showing Arabs and Jews illustrated in reconciliation.

Carlos Latuff, Watch Tower

Photo is courtesy of Brazilian anti-Israeli cartoonist Carlos Latuff who has a very special way of seeing the Star of David – he looks at it as the shape of a Watch Tower. This is a unique simile, to the best of my knowledge. It reminds me of the Star Fort of Matara in Sri-Lanka.
