Iran is now releasing cartoons that Trump can understand. 😂🤣👇 pic.twitter.com/8st6rIGH98

There is something to laugh about in everything and this cartoon is the way Iranians are finding to laugh about the horror that is happening in the Middle East.
We have seen what is happening to the people of Iran before, it is what happened to the people of Gaza and the people of Ukraine and what they all have in common is that it is people who have no part in the quarrel who pay its price.
I find this cartoon funny as it feels like a reaction from the Iranian people, not its leaders and any moderate people around the world are brought to sympathy with them.

You think this might have been created by an individual or an entity other than the Iranian government?
Perhaps.
However, we definitely know it wasn’t created by one of the 3,000 (admitted) – 30,000+ (estimated) Iranians slaughtered this year.

Why is anyone laughing?
Hello Henry,
Despite the cartoon indicating the situation in Iran, isn’t the image (at the end of your text) of a young lady standing on a car roof, the same young lady who was taken and beaten-up by the Iranian Religious Police for not dressing as is expected in that Country? I wonder how she is fairing under President Trump’s onslaught in the so-called ‘Escape to freedom’?
Kind regards,
