Abstract

This article reflects on the significance of the events of october of 2023 in Palestine/Israel through an image of the palestinian cartoon Handala. Assuming it to be a pivotal moment in the history of the so-called "conflict," the intention is not to unravel the context, explanation, or motivations behind Hamas's actions. but to exam the impact such actions may have on Palestinian political imagination and the anticolonial resistance to Zionism.
