Today's J. Post cartoon

The unexpected ouster of Tunisia's longtime dictator, Zine al-Abedine Ben Ali, is having repercussions (represented literally here) throughout the rest of the Arab world. As the world holds its breath, one can only wonder: who will be the next ruler to fall?
Could it be Hosni Mubarak, President of Egypt since 1981?
Might it be Jordan King Abdullah II?
Or will it be Abdelaziz Bouteflika, from neighboring Algeria?
Or maybe a dark horse--say, a Saudi?
Place your bets, folks!

Drawn using:
No. 2 pencil (sketch)
Blue 0.4 mm pilot pen
Black 0.5 mm pilot pen

  2. Thanks for the kind words, Ogie. I'm especially proud of this cartoon because it was the first one that gave my blog a lot of attention!
