The wave of popular demonstrations that began in Tunisia in December is now spreading in Bahrain and Libya, where, in recent days security forces have killed and wounded dozens of unarmed civilians who were protesting against countries' their undemocratic, dictatorial regimes. This cartoon
by Schrank The Independent on Sunday sums up the moral blindness of official Britain's arms exports to those countries. For British companies last year were granted licenses for the export of weapons being used now against the crowds, a number of oppressive regimes, including Libya and Bahrain.
The camel Deadly
In this cartoon by Dave Brown from The Independent, the Libyan dictator Colonel Muammar Gaddafi's camel is portrayed as a stubborn, refusing to move despite being pushed from behind by a crowd of people. The hump camel hides inside a gun, which fafuoco on people who are trying to make it move.The comic is a metaphor for the determination of Gaddafi to hold on to power by ruthlessly cracking down on anti-government demonstrations.
Gadaffi
Unlike his Egyptian counterpart, President Libyan Muammar Gaddafi is determined to use violence in an attempt to cling to power amid protests calling for his resignation as governor of the BBC nazione.La complaint has reached the point to fire on demonstrators from warplanes. Meanwhile, cartoonists around the world have done excellent work on the Libyan dictator ...For example, Paul Thomas from The Daily Express shows Gaddafi in his military uniform. However, instead of the usual medals and other military insignia , there are three rows of skulls, a symbol of the massacre of innocent citizens.
Garland in The Daily Telegraph reinterprets one of the famous photo of the wreckage after the plane ' Lockerbie bombing (for which Libya is largely responsible). The wreck is now equipped with Gaddafi's face, to symbolize his fall from power.
Wind of Change
This cartoon by Garland by The Daily Telegraph was inspired by the bizarre 'Col. Gaddafi interview umbrella 'on Tuesday (see photo ), when the besieged Libyan dictator appeared on state television under a large umbrella, looking out from the front seat of a van.

The cartoonist drawing reinterprets the scene with the umbrella Gaddafi torn apart by strong winds.
The caption is 'Wind of Change'. 'Wind of change'
The term is used to describe a fundamental shift in power or politics, an inexorable current not under the control of the leaders. The phrase was popularized in its present context by the British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan In a speech to the South African Parliament, February 4, 1960, talking about the future of Africa: 'The wind of change is blowing through the continent. ' Whether we like it or not, this growth of national consciousness is a political fact. ' (Source: The Phrase Finder )
This cartoon by Paul Thomas from The Daily Express shows British citizens returning from the war-torn Libya. The joke is that instead of the usual hand luggage, led boxes full of gasoline with them because the price of petrol is set to rise in Britain (and elsewhere) because of the crisis in the Middle East. (In fact, Libya is responsible for only 2% of world oil production, although its share of the European market is estimated at about 10%).
