There were actually 12 cartoons, they are all displayed on the bottom of this page:

Be advised, that so much as viewing that page puts you right onto the ever-growing suicide-bomber target list.

Political cartoons are very cultural in nature. it is unlikely that many cartoons from other countries will make a whole lot of sense to an American audience and visa versa. The more different the cultures, the less sense they will make. It is almost a certainty that none of the cartoons make any sense at all to a middle eastern audience.
