"Yahoo No.5 - How I Loved The War" By Joe Sacco (published by Fantagraphics Books, Inc., Seattle, October 1991)

 
 
Nothing to do with THE Yahoo search engine - this magazine came out some 22 years ago! The subject was the mindlessness of the Gulf War of 1991,conducted by President George Bush senior. Sacco, through his powerful drawings and sharp dialogue, asks uncomfortable questions about the meaning of the war to both Americans and the people of Iraq and Palestine. Here is Joe Sacco's impressive biography from Fantagraphics Books' website: http://www.fantagraphics.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=267&Itemid=82
