Another #F1 cartoon used in a protest, Sehla, #Bahrain

The artwork I made in January 12, calling to boycott to the Formula One in Bahrain, was used in another prostest.

(Associated Press) Bahraini anti-government protesters carry a poster calling for a boycott of next weekend’s Formula OneBahrain Grand Prix during a march Sunday, April 15, 2012, in Sehla, Bahrain, near the capital of Manama. The Arabic reads, “formula in Bahrain is crushing the bodies of the people.” Thousands of protesters, many waving national flags, called for the fall of the Bahraini regime and freedom for political prisoners.

ATTENTION! King Hamad’s regime reacts about my cartoons on #Bahrain

According to a Twitter account supposedly held by the Information Affairs Authority (IAA) of Bahrain, of the regime of King Hamad, they are concerned about the “journalistic integrity” displayed in my cartoons. In the messages, IAA states that my drawings “tip over the limits” of what is considered freedom of speech. It’s curious that a government institution of Bahrain uses words like “integrity” and “freedom of speech”, which are values definitely not applied by Hamad’s regime.

According to a report by Amnesty International, an organization accorded a great deal of integrity, Bahraini authorities “had committed gross human rights violations with impunity, including the excessive use of force against protesters, widespread torture and other ill-treatment of protesters, unfair trials and unlawful killings.

Cartoon I made for Abdulhadi al-Khawaja used in a demo outside UK embassy in #Bahrain

Cartoon I made for Bahraini activist Abdulhadi al-Khawaja was used by protesters yesterday.

(Associated Press) Anti-government protesters approach riot police holding pictures of a jailed opposition human rights activist Saturday, April 14, 2012, outside the British Embassy in Manama, Bahrain. Dozens gathered in support of Abdulhadi al-Khawaja, who has been on a prison hunger strike for more than two months. Police, who blocked surrounding roads, dispersed the demonstrators with sound grenades. The Arabic on the banner worn by the woman at center reads: “freedom or martyrdom.”

Another of my toons against #F1 in #Bahrain turned into graffiti in Barbar

(Associated Press) A Bahraini carrying a child passes a wall Thursday, April 5, 2012, in Barbar, Bahrain, west of the capital of Manama, that is painted with graffiti depicting Bahrain’s King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa in a race car, calling for a boycott of this year’s Formula OneBahrain grand prix, scheduled for April 22. The Arabic is a signature reading “free men of Barbar.” A year after an anti-government uprising forced Bahrain’s rulers to cancel the kingdom’s coveted Formula One race, the grand prix is again smack in the middle of a power struggle.


(Foto) Manifestante no #Bahrain manda um recado ao brasileiros

A foto, enviada pelo defensor dos direitos humanos no Bahrain, Said Yousif Almuhafda, mostra manifestante exibindo uma charge que fiz ano passado, em que o rei Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa disparando uma lata de gás lacrimogêneo produzida no Brasil. A Condor Tecnologias Não-Letais, com sede no Rio de Janeiro, é um dos fabricantes destes artefatos que tem feito muitas vítimas no Bahrain. Os manifestantes querem que o Brasil pare de vender gás lacrimogêneo para a ditadura do rei Hamad. O site Operamundi publicou artigo a respeito: http://operamundi.uol.com.br/conteudo/noticias/18590/gas+lacrimogeneo+fabricado+no+brasil+e+usado+para+reprimir+protestos+no+bahrein.shtml
