That's a rather dishonest addition to this thread there Sarah. You know perfectly well that I've previously discussed this image and its prior fair use status when requested to do so by [[User:Itsmejudith]] and that was some time ago. Here are some sensible words regarding captioning: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Captions#Some_criteria_for_a_good_cap... #3 and #4 are seriously lacking.
What is the problem with citing what the source of this image is saying about it? In terms of the image he's the only reliable source even discussing it.

No one's responded to me about why NPOV shouldn't be followed in adding

the caption the quote from the image's source (Zombie of Zombietime.com) "Zombie of Zombietime.com describes this poster as, "the most

presented with straw man arguments. I've got no problem with the image
but
what I do have a problem with is when an image is presented outside of neutral point of view.
What I have a problem with is people turning up at articles they've made no contribution to, in an area they've done no research, making an image invisible, adding an OR tag, wikilawyering about policies, violating 3RR, starting a thread on AN/I, starting various threads on people's talk pages, and now starting another one on wikiEN-l.
The photograph perfectly reflects the debate about new anti-Semitism. Some people look at it and instantly see a highly anti-Semitic image. Others see an anti-Zionist one. Others again see the latter but believe there's sometimes not a big difference between the two. So it is with new anti-Semitism, as the article describes. The cutline doesn't need commentary from someone who has done no research into the subject and who seems to be out to cause trouble only.
