Just a few hours after an Egyptian young man scaled the the Israeli embassy building to bring down the Israeli flag, Brazilian political cartoonist Carlos Latuff created the Egyptian Spiderman.

Latuff depicted Ahmed Shahat, the young man who climbed up the Israeli Embassy building in Giza and pulled the Israeli flag down and named him the 'Flagman'. "The cartoon speaks for itself," Latuff told Ahram Online.
