Taking the Bull By the Horns
May 31, 1910
Theodore Roosevelt grasps a bull by the horns. The bull is labelled John Bull and its tail is an upright flagpole flying a British flag and a pendant labelled British Rule in Egypt. Uncle Sam looks on with binoculars in the background.
Roosevelt had given a speech in London on British Rule in Africa, in which he had roundly criticized the British occupation of Egypt for its lenience in not indiscriminately murdering those who stood against it.
