it's funny because politics are black and white and giving land to the Palestinians would be just like giving Egypt to the Israelis.

must not be an effective cartoon, then. they should have more arrows pointing to things so they're clearly labeled.

the idea of a threaded conversation in reply to a specific post did.

Clearly, it's making fun of the Donation of Constantine, which the Papacy used in the middle ages to seize most of central Italy away from the Holy Roman Empire.

I'm pretty sure the analogy is giving land stolen by Israel back to the Egyptians (the hypothetical news of the future) where Egypt = Palestine, not the Israelies.

it's still a long explanation for a rather flat gag.

I thought that this cartoon was stating that isreal stole part of egypt in the future citing the distant past, implying that they had used the same logic to take palestine...

I really don't know what to think about this one. Any country that is ruled by religion is wrong, regardless of what the religion is.

BUFFY: This good. Ooh, good! enough.

Guy#1: Still more is good.

BUFFY: Yeah. Foamy.

Guy#3: You should come to our class on big thinking. It's good.

(They all laugh. Cut to Xander at the bar. A girl approaches with a cigarette)

Girl: Boy, I'm having the worst day. You got a light?

(Xander, worried about Buffy, misses his intro and just points to a no-smoking sign. back at Buffy's table...)

Guy#1: I like girls.

BUFFY: You stupid.

Guy#1: No, you stupid

BUFFY: smelly head.

[7]

(later)

Guy#1: Stupid.

Guy#2: No, you stupid.

BUFFY: No you. (They all laugh)

(Xander puts some music on the jukebox.)

BUFFY: You (they all laugh)

BUFFY: Hey!

(She runs over to him and looks confused. She bangs on the jukebox and laughs.)

BUFFY: Thing. Like it.

XANDER: It's time to go home Buffy.

BUFFY: Want more singing. Want more beer.

XANDER: No, I've cut you off.

BUFFY: Did it hurt?

XANDER: Out you go.

(Xander picks her up and starts carrying her to the door. She struggles. Final she walks to the door with him.)

BUFFY: Ow, oh, want beer. Like beer. Beer good.

XANDER: Beer Bad. Bad, bad beer. What the hell am I saying? Buffy, go home and go to bed.

BUFFY: Say bye (pushes him)

XANDER: Bye

BUFFY: Bye (she leaves)

Guy#1: Hey, where'd girl go?

Yes, and I oppose ALL of those governments, especially Israel.

I don't think the comic is making any statement about religion, it's making a statement about invading your neighbours.

Invading your neighbors rules! If it hadn't been for the goddamn civil war we'd won Candadaland right now.
