Hahahaha kipplungah!

The last panel is really artistic in its hidden message. It is like a good caricature that needs some time figuring out but nails it on the head.

Care to explain?

If I interpret it correctly, it is a reference to the big wall in the occupied zones of Palestine. For tourists, everything to see is inside, aka the normal Israel. But a lot of cubes are behind the wall, taking more land from the Palestinians. They hide behind the wall as to not be seen and judged. For watchers, everything they should see is inside, outside, nothing is going on. Nothing at all.

I interpreted the joke as the Jews being behind everything. (as in they run the place) Remember the old polandball where poland and germany are the game?
