Ghassan Kanafani's "Falasteen"

He doodled the word Falasteen, and then developed it into a collage of symbols and images intertwined and stemming from the word. Kanafani, a brilliant writer who introduced the concept of "resistance literature," was killed with his niece by a car bomb planted by the Israeli Mossad in 1972.
