But he is also critical of the Arab world. Here is his criticism of Egypt's policy not to allow Gazans to take refuge there.
Since October 7, he has gotten in hot water by comparing Israel to Hamas and other Islamic terrorists.
Here is explicitly says that Israel defending itself is like Hamas taking hostages.
And here he put a jihadist-style mask with an Israeli flag on an Israeli soldier.
This has caused a scandal from the many Arabs who support the Islamic terrorists.
Anguished op-eds asked how such a wonderful artist could stoop so low as to compare the hero rapists and baby killers with the IDF.
Haddad answered that he sometimes draws for a Western audience, and his entire body of work must be seen as a whole, but he admits some "mistakes." (Some of his cartoons are published at politicalcartoons.com.)
Alas, his explanations were not enough.
Following complaints, the Disciplinary Committee of the Jordanian Journalists Syndicate issued a ruling to freeze Imad Hajjaj's membership for two years. Presumably this means he will not be able to work.
Previously, Haddad was arrested by Jordanian police over a cartoon that criticized the UAE for making peace with Israel.
This is what press freedom looks like in "moderate" Jordan.
