Description

The cartoon shows American President Obama thanking the people who have awarded him the Nobel Peace Prize and asking to be excused so that he can send 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan. Critics thought the Nobel prize was unjustified because Obama had not had time to prove himself. Committing more troops to the Afghan War has been a difficult decision. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
