Two years of illegal war against Ukraine

  It is now two years that Russia tried to invade Ukraine and started an illegal war against its people. Russia has attacked hospitals, homes, destroyed the city of Mariopol, murdered the people of Bucha, attacked food storage in Odesa, destroyed the Kakhovka Dam to use it as a weapon of war... Yet Putin survives, yet the Kremlin's rule continues...  Russia invaded the neighbor country Ukraine and remains with impunity seating at the UN Security Council and other UN functions... pulling strings in the global economy...   I still have hope that the good people will win and there will be justice, but it is crazy that it is taking so long. It is not acceptable that a country illegally invades another, kills, rapes, destroys, ignores all human rights and remains with impunity... in the XXI century. The world cannot allow this, it is too barbaric!

Against the Russian "Firehose of Falsehood" Propaganda

Russian "Firehose of Falsehood"

The Russian Propaganda has been actively spreading lies for many years, as described in this article by Christopher Paul and Miriam Matthews published in 2016. If you have read my previous posts, you know how propaganda and hate speech have been used to justify atrocity crimes throughout history, including during the holocaust and the years that preceeded it. Adolph Hitler's Nazi regime was the architect of the holocaust. Although humankind has said "never again" can such atrocities repeat, "never forget!", history seems to repeat itself as authoritarian rulers keep using the same recipe to get rid of groups of people that they want to remove of their way. This is what has inspired the caricature above of Putin reading Hitler's book "Mein Kampf", with the title "so it began, again!".


A bit of truth

To fight disinformation with information, here is another caricature, now inspired by Putin's arrest warrant issued by the International Court of Justice (ICC) due to illegal deportation of children - here is the ICC's press release announcing Putin's arrest warrant... just in case some Russians do not yet know.

Man doing crosswords identifies Putin as Head of State with arrest warrant

but of course there is much more that can be said along those lines, as the Russian army keeps attacking civilian targets in Ukraine, from residential apartment buildings to hospitals, water supply infrastructure and pizza restaurants...

Why caricature Putin?

Vote on your favourite caricature Do any of these look like Putin to you? what is your favorite caricature?  did I have any success in capturing Putin's likeness? P lease leave a comment to let me know. Caricature as a weapon for peace Putin deserves to be captured and trialed for his crimes, as do the ones that follow his orders on the ground, in the Ukrainian territory, illegally occupied by Russia. I do believe that war criminals, tyrants, and any other type of genocidal power-abusing invaders deserve to be mocked, ridiculed and otherwise publicly humiliated until they fall, not necessarily by violence, but by the loudness and undeniable-evidence and weight of their own wrong-doing.  So for the past fifteen months since Russia invaded Ukraine I have been trying to caricature Vladimir Putin. As I am just a hobbyist aspiring artist,  and can only work on this in my spare time, it has taken me this much time. Honestly, I thought this absurd war would be over before I would ever nee

Putin, Mad or Bad?

About the designs: The first image, was inspired by a few online articles I read at the end of February /beginning of March 2022 as to whether Putin has gone mad or is simply bad. My current take is that he is both mad and bad. Version 2 is just an update of the caricature. Do you recognize him? Vote now, your opinion matters! And from these two versions, which do you like best? Participate in other design polls: Black heart
