The Book-"Dry Bones Fights Back"

 Dry Bones Golden Oldies in the fond memory of Yaakov Kirschen (Dry Bones). Brought to you by Sali, the LSW.

This cartoon is from 1994 and is one of many in Yaakov's big cartoon book collection available on Amazon called "Dry Bones Fights Back" Please check it out. I think it will be very relivent to these times., Wishing you Shabbat Shalom

This is what Yaakov wrote about this cartoon, and his book, "The above cartoon shows a mother helping her kid with his homework. It is taken from our book: Dry Bones Cartoons Fight Back.
I drew the cartoon back in 1994, 26 years ago.
The book is a 148-page collection of the best of my "fighting back" cartoons.

I chose cartoons that remain meaningful, but in each, alongside my signature, is the year in which I drew it. None are Politically Correct. Most are angry. But if you are a Zionist Jew or a Righteous Gentile, every page will bring you comfort in these stressful days.

Be strong, We shall overcome. The book is on sale at Amazon http://amazon.com/author/kirschen In addition to this printed book, there is also a kindle edition (and a bookshelf of other Dry Bones books)."

 Here is the cover.

and here is another cartoon from the book

Here is a link to look at the new Kindle edition. 

This 148-page collection is called Dry Bones Cartoons Fight Back.

It's now available for Kindle at only $9.98!!

Ever again and again

 Dry Bones Golden Oldies in the fond memory of Yaakov Kirschen (Dry Bones). Brought to you by Sali, the LSW. A humorus look at antisemitism again and again.

Here is what Yaakov had to say about this cartoon when he first published it. Maybe it will give us hope to overcome....again

"After The Second World War we reacted to the Nazi horrors by trying to convince ourselves, and the rest of the world, that the "Holocaust" had been a "crime against humanity" instead of the expression of an ages-old and unique war to destroy the Jewish people.

It wasn't the German people who were responsible , we liked to think, it was the Nazis.

But like the Germans who cheered the vile acts of their beloved Nazis back then, today the Palestinian Arabs and their supporters around the world are cheering the vile acts of their beloved Hamas.

"Never Again" is not a wish. It is our pledge to fight any reappearance of the beast. And the beast is back."

Ezekiel

 Dry Bones Golden Oldie Cartoons in fond memory of Yaakov Kirschen(Dry Bones) brought to you by Sali, the LSW

We are living through weird and crazy times. Yaakov and I are/were not particularly religious or observant, but he was a firm believer in the book of Ezekiel and his prophecy. This is part of what he had to to say about this cartoon when he posted it 10 years ago. 

"When I came to Israel in the early seventies, I named my comic strip Dry Bones. That was because of Ezekiel's vision of the Dry Bones and the ingathering of the Jews to the Land of Israel. Want to know what awaits us? What comes next? Sit yourself down and read the Book of Ezekiel."

Much love, and wishes for peace and for all of our hostages to be released NOW and for our soldiers to be safe.

Building the New Middle East

 Dry Bones Golden Oldies in the fond memory of Yaakov Kirschen (Dry Bones). This is a classic Dry Bones from 1991 based on a drawing by M.S. Escher

I am having a difficult time posting for the blog lately. It is not hard to find good cartoons, but it is hard for me emotionally to go through them. Also, the world situation is such a mess. I would rather skip watching any news these days. But I feel that I need to keep up with current events to be able to choose relevant cartoons. I think this is a very good one.

 Much love and wishes for peace and for all of our hostages to be released NOW and for our soldiers to be safe.

Honoring Yaakov Kirschen at Cinematheque Tel Aviv

  Dry Bones Golden Oldies in the fond memory of Yaakov Kirschen (Dry Bones).

The Israeli Cartoonists association honored Yaakov this past week with an exhibit of his cartoons at the Tel Aviv Cinematheque and had a ceremony there on Friday morning. I said a few words also.

They showed about 25 of his cartoons, plus a few cartoons that Israeli cartoonists did in tribute when he passed away.

Here is one of the cartoons that was done for an Israeli audience many years ago as a Friday page in the Jerusalem Post and was part of the exhibit.  

and here are some photos from the Event and the exhibition. So sorry, I have not yet learned how to use Yaakov's Photoshop yet, so I was not able to brighten up the photos from my camera. That is me with the microphone.

Wishing everyone a good week. Much love and wishes for peace and for all of our hostages to be released NOW and for our soldiers to be safe.

Blessings to you all  and your family and loved ones, peace, health, happiness and freedom.

Foreign Journalists in Gaza

  Dry Bones Golden Oldies in the fond memory of Yaakov Kirschen (Dry Bones).

We who are here in Israel, and can talk to people on the ground in Gaza, can see how skewed the foreign press is in their reporting. This is not something new. This Dry Bones cartoon was done over 15 years ago. 

Much love and wishes for peace and for all of our hostages to be released NOW and for our soldiers to be safe.

Wishing everyone and your family and loved ones, peace, health, happiness and freedom.
