“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
