Here's a cartoon I drew two weeks ago and neglected to post, when Trump pulled US troops out and invited Turkey, Russia and Asad into Kurdish controlled Syria. I notice when I don't post a cartoon, other people take them from my site and post them anyway. That's bad.

Seven years ago Obama and his NATO allies claimed they were invading Libya for “humanitarian” purposes - turning the country into a war-torn failed state now ruled by slave-sell jihadists.
