Just one more case of discrimination by irancartoon.com

A few days ago the notorious web site posted a catalogue of the best cartoons participated in the Russian Karikaturum Cartoon contest. As usual the administration of irancartoon.com did it without permission of the organizers. As usual they throw away the drawings made by Israeli cartoonists including the winner of the First Grand Prix in the history of the contest. So, nothing is new. Just one more proof that irancartoon.com is happy to serve the conservative regime, that it is ready to discriminate artists based on their nationality. It does not matter for the owners of the site if they look foolish trying to hide any mentions of the Israelis - everybody in the cartoon world knows the names of the winners. There is just one thing that is important - to be loyal to the Mr. Ahmadinejad's cultural policy.

Please check the recent interview of Iranian cartoonist Kianoush Ramezani by Daryl Cagle.
The most interesting part for me was the history and the role of Iranian House of Cartoon
(irancartoon.com), the fact that this organization is working for the Iranian government
and is paid by the government for many many years.

You can listen this interview on Daryl Cagle's blog (February 8th) or on youtube:
