During the period between the day of the glorious Egyptian revolution on January 25 and February 15 which is extending to twenty one days, it is enough to change of the egg to chick.

We noticed during that period the attention of a large number of Arab cartoonists with the events of the revolution and some of them changed their speeches.

Although many of cartoonists suffered from scissors sergeant, therefore any word said in Tunisian or Egyptian revaluation became sensitive. In a according to that, it could mean a comparison between the Arab organization and the country that won in revaluation.

Some newspaper didn’t publish cartoons for Arab cartoonists, either because their positions weren’t conforming to the policy of the newspaper, or because they favored neutrality.

But this is better than some cartoons witch attacked and described the nation revaluation as a charm, and after it won, they changed their speeches.

Interestingly, many of Syrian and Palestinian newspaper ignored or didn’t have appositive attitudes of the Egyptian revaluation.

Egyptian revaluation was as an opportunity to find out how Arab cartoonists deal with particular events in term of political attitudes or in terms of drives ideas.
