Mohammad Sabaaneh, a talented political cartoonist from Palestine, has gained renown worldwide for his stark black-and-white sketches that draw attention to the Israeli occupation and celebrate popular resistance by Palestinians. These provocative drawings do not flinch from tackling the tough subjects that confront Palestinians, from Israel’s everyday injustices in the West Bank to their frequent military operations on Gaza. This collection includes 160 of Sabaaneh’s best cartoons, including some depicting the experience of Palestinian political prisoners being held in Israel. This book offers profound insights into the political and social struggles facing the Palestinian people through Sabaaneh’s distinctive graphic style.

"Despite working at a very complicated crossroads of ideology and political pressures, Mohammad Sabaaneh continues to produce sharp, incisive cartoons. His tenacity and courage is an inspiration for cartoonists around the world." Matt Wuerker, Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist, Politico "If you want to get a smart Palestinan's view of what's happening in the Middle East, you can't do better than look at Mohammad Sabaaneh's cartoonsthey tell you more than words can say." Victor Navasky, publisher emeritus, The Nation "What makes Mohammad's place in the world of cartooning so extraordinary is that he performs his art in the world's hottest of political hotspots. Mohammad bravely uses his great talents as a cartoonist to work in the midst of this political minefield." KAL, editorial cartoonist, The Economist "An eloquent work on the ravages of settler colonialism. Every line in this collection achingly cries 'Palestine, Palestine!' This book is a must for all who care about peace and justice." Khalil Bendib, author, Mission Accomplished: Wicked Cartoons by America's Most Wanted Political Cartoonist "Sabaaneh's illustrations are intricate and movingstark, striking, and rich with Palestinian visual traditions and symbols. These cartoons are a powerful call to action, both to the international community and to the Palestinian people." Leila Abdelrazaq, graphic artist and author, Baddawi "Mohammad Sabaaneh is one of the most talented Palestinian cartoonists working today. His haunting figures, rendered in black, white and grey, show us a vivid Palestinian perspective on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, protest, injustice and human rights." Tjeerd Royaards, Editor-in-Chief, Cartoon Movement "In a part of the world where the conflicts have run so long that the issues seem dreadfully familiar, Mohammad's brutal cartoons about a brutal occupation prompts readers to think about things from a different perspective. A fresh point of view can change the world, and no one's trying harder to do that than Mohammad Sabaaneh." Ted Rall, nationally syndicated editorial cartoonist and columnist "Each of Mohammad Sabaaneh's powerful drawings is like a gut punch that gets straight to the essence of the stark reality of Palestinian life under Israeli occupation. This is how an artist resists." Joe Sacco, author and illustrator, Palestine and Footnotes in Gaza
