Occupy Tampa posts anti-Semitic cartoon on Holocaust Day

The Occupy Tampa movement posted an anti-Semitic cartoon on their Facebook page on Thursday, which coincided with Israel’s Holocaust Remembrance Day.

The cartoon, shown below, depicted a Jewish man with a big nose and large beard driving a car with the symbol of the United Nations as the wheel and U.S. President Barack Obama’s head as the stick shift.

Within five hours the cartoon received more than 400 comments, mostly from outraged users, including many Israelis.

“Putting this on Holocaust day just makes it even more sickening than it already is,” one user said.

“This is an outrage. All OWS sympathizers must be disgusted by this vile act of hatred,” said another user.

Despite the fact that most of the commentators were furious over the cartoon, 54 people “liked” the image.
