Spanish American war cartoon

The issue of this political cartoon the Spanish-American war. The cartoon shows a Spaniard being launched back into Spain. The cartoonist message is if Spain can't respect America then they have to go back home. The cartoonist  shows an American removing Spain from American territory. Other opinions could be that America was interning in an issue that was not of our concern. That opinion, however, was probably lost when the USS Maine was destroyed. A technique used by the cartoonist is symbolism by showing what happened to Spain. Another technique used is labeling by labeling the land in the cartoon. My anti-imperialism stance is supported by this cartoon. My opinion on imperialism that countries should not take territory due the smaller countries might grow angry and rebel.
