Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Footnotes in Gaza is a graphic novel by Joe Sacco, the author of Palestine and Safe Area Gorazde.In November of 1956, the Israelis stormed two Palestinian towns, Khan Younis and Rafah. In each case, men were rounded up and summarily executed, leading to 275 deaths in Khan Younis and 111 in Rafah. Fast-forward to 2001, when Joe Sacco undertakes a project to get witness accounts of exactly what happened on those fateful days and why the Israelis carried out such a brazen operation. Along the way, Joe examines life in modern-day Rafah, where the Israelis are carrying out a campaign of bulldozing the houses of suspected terrorists.

Potty Failure: At one point, hoping for some straightforward information about the events at Rafah and Khan Younis, Joe asks how the captured men went to the bathroom while they were in captivity. The short answer is that most of them relieved themselves in their clothing.

comment
Deliberate Values Dissonance: The book does not pull any punches about how much the Palestinians hate Israelis and Americans. When the War in Iraq breaks out, the Palestinians gleefully cheer the news about the early Coalition deaths.

Gonk: Sacco portrays himself with exaggerated features, including a large nose, profound overbite, and gawky frame in order to highlight just how out of place he looks walking around Gaza.
