Anger is a legitimate emotion in the face of injustice. Passive acceptance of evil is not a virtue.

Cartoon by the legendary Gerald Scarfe in London's Sunday Times stirs furor among Jewish groups ( Yawn..).
In Haaretz:
Four reasons why U.K. cartoon of Netanyahu isn't anti-Semitic in any way
"Netanyahu's depiction is grossly offensive and
unfair but that is only par for the course for any politician when
cartoonist Scarfe is at his drawing-board."
Murdoch owner of the paper apologises for "grotesque" cartoon:
'Gerald Scarfe has never reflected the opinions
of the Sunday Times,' Rupert Murdoch tweeted in response to criticism
by Jewish groups, who said the drawing was reminiscent of anti-Semitic
blood libels.
Scarfe's animation of Pink Floyd's video of The Wall is one of his most famous works.
