Iran Made a Cartoon Competition Mocking Donald Trump

Hundreds of cartoonists from several countries in the world participated in a competition in Iran which mocked Donald Trump as the topic of the competition.


The winner is Hadi Asadi from Iran. In his drawing, the United States President is wearing a dollars-pattern jacket with the burning yellow hair.

The officials who was responsible for the exhibition previously hosted a similar contest with the theme which had Islamic State or the Holocaust, or the mass murder of Jews by the Nazis as the themes.


And logo that was used this year was based on the Nazi but with the shape of 'T' and not the swastika, which prompted many people to compare the United States President to Nazism.


"The Ism is Trumpisme, refers to racism and Nazism," explained Masuod Shojai Tabatabaei, who managed the competition to the Associated Press News Agency.

"Many believe his comments is as equal as Hitler. He has a bad attitude towards the media and refugees."

The last year theme, the Holocaust-cartoon, sparked condemnation from the Prime Minister of Israel, Binyamin Netanyahu, but the manager said that they wanted to question the double standard of the Western over freedom of speech, instead of raised doubt over the mass killings by the Nazis.

Other cartoons in the competition illustrated the Trump's promise to build the wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, violence against women, and the attack on the media.



Some of the participants of the race comes from the United Kingdom and the United States, including the cartoonist Clayton Jones with works featuring two cover of Time magazine, the one with a picture of President Trump and another picture of Adolf Hitler.


Both are written as the Times Annual Selection with Trump told the German generals: "it is a great honor", and Hitler's replied: "Yes".

Nigerian army Claims the Second Rescue of Chibok Girl

A second schoolgirl that was seized in the Nigerian town of Chibok has been found, the army says. But a spokesman for the Chibok girls' parents has cast doubt on the claims, saying that the girl's name is not on the families' list of those missing. An army spokesman said Serah Luka was among a group of 97 women and children rescued by troops in the north-east. Islamist militant group Boko Haram has abducted thousands of other girls in recent years, rights groups estimate. This comes two days after the rescue of the first Chibok girl, Amina Ali Nkeki. The army has previously given misleading statements about the rescue of the Chibok girls - in its initial statement after Ms Nkeki was found, it used a wrong name. In all, 218 girls remain missing after their abduction by the Boko Haram Islamist group from Chibok secondary school in north-eastern Nigeria in 2014. Ms Nkeki told a Chibok community leader that six of the kidnapped girls had died, but...

Obama administration Issues Transgender Access to School Bathrooms

The issue of directing public schools to allow transgender students to use bathrooms matching their gender identity is being discussed by the Obama administration on Friday. A joint letter from the Departments of Education and Justice will go out to schools on Friday with guidelines to ensure that "transgender students enjoy a supportive and nondiscriminatory school environment," the Obama administration said on Thursday. The announcement comes amid heated debate over transgender rights in schools and public life, which includes a legal standoff between the administration and North Carolina over its controversial House Bill 2. The guidance goes beyond the bathroom issue, touching upon privacy rights, education records and sex-segregated athletics, all but guaranteeing transgender students the right to identify in school as they choose. "There is no room in our schools for discrimination of any kind, including discrimination against transgender students on ...

Will Ferrell and His Bird Collectian As "The Birds are for God"

An acclaimed actor and comedic genius like Will Ferrell is incredibly pleased to spend some valued time with his incredibly expensive bird collection, according to his good friend Adam McKay. McKay, who has directed Ferrell in films like "Anchorman" and "Step Brothers," told HuffPost Live on Monday that Ferrell's home is brimming with birds of all kinds, and Ferrell himself is a bit of a bird whisperer. "He has giant cages on his property filled with different tropical birds, and these are the kind of birds that will bite you, that you have to be careful with, but when it's him, they just fly right to his arm," McKay said. "Often times if you're at his house ... he has, like, a cockatiel on his shoulder for long stretches." An affinity for birds isn't exactly surprising, but what will shock you is the enormous monetary value of Ferrell's flock. "He had to have his bird collection insured, and I think it's wor...
