Garfield's Jim Davis blew it

Reuters reports that a Garfield strip ran on Thursday that many saw as insulting to Armistice/Veterans Day. Jim Davis has at least apologized, and said:
...the cartoon had been written almost a year previously and that Davis, who had a brother who served in Vietnam and a son who served in Afghanistan and Iraq as a Marine, had not known when it was going to appear.I hope this is correct. If it is, then it suggests the syndicate in charge of distribution (Universal Press? I know he stopped relying upon United Features in 1994) held it back deliberately until now. In that case, maybe the distribution syndicate owes an apology.
