'Character of the Day: Ha'aretz.'

A satiric cartoon in the leftist Ha’aretz daily, slamming Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, has been turned around on the newspaper by a Zionist cartoonist of equal talent.

The cartoon showed the prime minister flying a plane named “Israel” heading directly into New York’s Twin Towers at the now-fallen World Trade Center, destroyed in a similar manner by Al Qaeda on Sept. 11, 2001.

It was a crude and tasteless way in which to attack the country’s leader.

Orit Kopel redrew the cartoon, however, to instead depict the “Character of the Day” flying the plane, labeled “Ha’aretz” (in Hebrew) directly at the Twin Towers decorated as the State of Israel and flying the Israeli flag.

Within the first hour of posting the cartoon on her Facebook page, Kopel received 173 “Likes” and 25 “shares” for the drawing.

“Great!” several people responded. “You’re a queen!” said one.
