Cartoon: Drone condolences

Steve Sack, Minneapolis Star Tribune, Cagle Cartoons

TomDispatch writes on his FB page:

A Steve Sack drone cartoon that’s apt. I’m an editor, of course, but I don’t usually edit cartoons. Still, if I were editing this one, just for absolute accuracy, I would change the label “sympathy cards for innocent bystanders” to “sympathy cards for innocent Western bystanders.” When it comes to the Obama administration, dead locals — whether children, wedding party attendees, or whoever — get no sympathy, no attention, no recognition, no cards of any sort. That’s the nature of our American world. Tom
