Khudair Al-Hamiri is a cartoonist from Baghdad. He used to draw cartoons for a major news papers in the city since the eighties (as far as I can remember). He has a very vivid sense of hummer that is mixed with a dark twist. He is still posting cartoons for one of the many news papers in Baghdad till the moment of writing this post and I am glad he is doing so.
I will post some of his drawings and translate their comments.He is criticizing the current situation of Baghdad with the contributing parties to its chaos.

This is only in Spanish, but is a very interesting and serious series of lectures called "Contemporary Arab Representations: The Iraqi Equation."
