G man from L town
That cartoon is about how much death Gadhafi is causing in and around his possession of Libya. He states that he wants more blood in the cartoon; this is reflection of the bloodshed he's already caused and the humor focuses on his recent rampage with the spilling of innocent blood, or rather, the blood of the oppressed people in Libya from public displays of execution. The joke signifies that he isn't satisfied with how much oppression that he's already inflicted upon the citizens in Libya. This cartoon emphasis on the idea that he's insane, as the title was called "Crazy Gadhafi."
This correlates to discussions we've had in class about whether or not it is America's place to intervene in the current rebellion, or if we should aid the rebels or even not partake in it at all. In this cartoon, it would seem more than anything that America's role in Libya would be to stop this dictator from massacring his people; this would obviously
be a humanitarian effort more than anything from a U.S. leadership stand point.
