The Yasser Arafat Foundation: We removed all the cartoons that "did not receive understanding from the Palestinian public opinion."

I assume it offended those who see these caricatures as painting Arafat as physically ugly.

So unrealistic!

Notice how the exhibition was inaugurated by the Palestinian Authority. They clearly had no problem with the depiction.
