Ali Farzat is the dean of Arab political cartoonists. His caricatures do not spare wealth, influence, or power. They give hope to the disenfranchised, the poor, and the hungry. Farzat is an authentic Arab voice who nevertheless does not hesitate to buck the tide of majority opinion. (He has consistently disparaged Saddam Hussein, for example, and lauds the US for adopting his position that Saddam must go.) Farzat's work is a ringing cry for justice that cuts across all cultures. Coming soon: a website with samples of Farzat's work.Farzat, Ali is the author of 'Pen of Damascus Steel The Political Cartoons of an Arab Master', published 2004 under ISBN 9781885942395 and ISBN 1885942397.
