See them [here](http://2bangkok.com/cyclone.shtml). From our local internationally award-winning cartoonist, Stephff. I linked to these in another thread, but I think they deserve one of their own.

Those were pretty touching political cartoons. I hope the vision of that cunt general and the junta being deposed and then brought before the ICC becomes reality. The one with the Tha-Nat-Kha [makeup](http://www.naturedream-travel.com/mystical/Culture/tha-na-ka.htm) reminds me of Burma. It was a very pleasant experience for me, although the people were being horribly repressed.

For whatever reason these cartoons do make this crisis hit home. The negligence and greedy of the generals is just incredible.
