Inspiration: Following the publication of the Goldstone Committee's conclusions, that accuse both Israel and Hamas of war crimes, the "Im Tirtzu" movement launched a media campaign that presents Human Rights organizations as collaborators with the enemy. The movement published a report claiming that most of the convictive testimonies comprising Goldstone's report originate in various Israeli Human Rights organizations. What followed in May 2010 was a legislative bill that proposed the delegitimization of all Israeli organizations and associations providing information to foreign authorities in order to bring military officers and politicians suspected of committing war crimes to justice.

This [series] is my senior project in visual communication studies in Holon Institute of Technology (HIT) instructed by Judith Asher.

This project criticizes my country's current government's anti-democratic direction in the past two years. It is a series of illustrations that show an apocalyptic future scenario, in order to provoke and raise questions among Israelis about the direction the country is going. The text under each drawing is an example of something that has happened recently, that demonstrates the project's message.
