In Support of Ali Ferzat

Ali Ferzat, one of the most famous cartoonists in Syria and the Arab world who has been a critic of the Syrian government, was severly beaten on 25 August by pro-government thugs in order to intimidate him and the Syrian opposition. In support of the talented and courageous Mr. Ferzat, here are some of his poignant cartoons.
