The Guardian newspaper has fired longtime editorial cartoonist Steve Bell after refusing to run a caricature of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that critics say draws on antisemitic stereotypes.

英国《卫报》在拒绝刊登以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡的漫画后解雇了资深社论漫画家史蒂夫·贝尔，批评人士认为这幅漫画带有反犹主义的刻板印象。

The decision comes after Bell depicted Netanyahu holding a scalpel and preparing to cut a Gaza-shaped incision in his abdomen.

这一决定是在贝尔描绘内塔尼亚胡拿着手术刀准备在腹部切开加沙形状的切口之后做出的。

Bell said he had been accused of evoking the pound of flesh demanded by the Jewish character Shylock in Shakespeare's play "The Merchant of Venice."

贝尔说，他被指控让人想起莎士比亚戏剧《威尼斯商人》中犹太角色夏洛克所要求的那一磅肉。

He said that had nothing to do with the cartoon and he would never dream of promoting anti-Semitic imagery.

他说，这与漫画无关，他从未想过要宣传反犹太形象。
