Dear Wikimedia Foundation people,

The page http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ariel_Sharon in commons includes
racist cartoons against a representative of the Jewish nation, and thus,
against the Jewish people themselves. I seems like Commons does not have a
NPOV policy and thus the pictures will be there until they manage to create
one. I do not agree that such pictures be presented in Ariel Sharon's page
and I think you should interfere (as commons community clearly don't have
the policies to deal with this case) and correct this serious offence before
it is released to the press in Israel.

Thanks,
Yoni Weiden
