This one is actually offensive if you really think about it:

Who's Sauron -- bin Laden or Bush?

At least they've expanded their horizons past Hitler analogies. The piece is accompanied by a picture of Viggo Mortensen wearing a "War is Not the Answer" t-shirt. If war wasn't the answer, it amazes me that I have still not heard a credible argument for what was the answer, especially since the status quo of UN sanctioned "containment" was even more of a failure than previously assumed:

Millions of Iraqis were struggling to survive on rations of food and medicine. Yet the government's hidden slush funds were being fed by suppliers and oil traders from around the world who sometimes lugged suitcases full of cash to ministry offices, said Iraqi officials who supervised the skimming operation.

So what was the answer Viggo?
