Talking about the story of the Gaza genocide with other images and other words is possible. The discovery of some slides in a high school in Catania is the starting point for analyzing the origins of Israel's military occupation of Gaza by resorting to the etymology of the words used to describe what expressions like "terrorist" or "military occupation" mean, while the drawings of Amos, an Israeli child who portrays his imaginary friend Anya under the worried gaze of the babysitter May Golan, point out that most horror stories have deep roots in everyday life.
