Judge for yourselves which of the cartoons are most apt to incite hatred and which of the other two series – the cartoons from Jyllands-Posten or those from Le Monde – most resemble the Nazi-era cartoons from Der Stürmer.

Note, incidentally, the use of German words for "incitement" – Hetzerei and Verhetzung – in the Stürmer cartoons in sets #5 and #8. The Stürmer frequently accused the "global Jewish press" of "incitement": namely, against Germans and Germany.

And special thanks to Erik for bringing "The Snakes in the Grass" to my attention and other helpful suggestions.
