In our American society, newspapers are very important as they provide a lot of factual information about what is happening nationally and internationally. Newspapers are usually written to report conflict, peace, knowledge, loss and other cultural media. These articles can be written in different forms, such as with multiple paragraphs, photos and comics; like the one that the New York Times newspaper released by its journalist, Joe Sacco, author of the comic “The Underground War in Gaza” on July 6, 2003. In his comic he exposes the conflicts between Israel and Palestine. Sacco then illustrates the attacks that are taking place in the Palestinian territories, where the Israeli army is trying to maintain control with the excuse of protecting the Palestinians from the attacks that take place in the underground tunnels. As Palestine struggles to regain its freedom from Israel. In this article I will report on the different strategies that Sacco uses in "The Underground War in Gaza" that communicates the perspectives of both Palestinians and Israelis on this complicated issue. I will then analyze each country's side, their use of protection, living conditions and gender portrayal with symbolic statues shown during the transition of its comic. Sacco uses multiple strategies to attract the attention of his readers and report on the communications that both Palestine and Israel are having. Start by using background graphics, writing, and messages. Sacco uses graphics to express his knowledge of the conflict with more than just words; reports that Palestine is still at war, with the battle raging over the Israeli army's tunnels and bulldozers. Sacco adds that the Israeli army has established itself in the Palestinian territories and in recent years. This includes logical explanations and graphics that show the emotions and visual understanding of what is happening to the citizens and settlements of Gaza. It also explains how each country protects its family and pride using various techniques such as quoting interviewees. Sacco then mentions the conditions in which both the soldier and the Palestinian citizens live. He describes the environment by adding various details in his drawings. Finally, the use of genders and their symbolic status in the comic which also shows males and a female demonstrates the power status between the two conflicting parties in “The Underground in Gaza” by the number of times the author uses the genre in his comic.
