Sami Ali El Goga – The Story of a Gazan Fisherman
International Solidarity Movement | September 3, 2015
ISM Gaza met the fisherman Sami Ali El Goga, 36, who lost his hand and part of his arm the 12th March 2007, when he was attacked by the Israeli navy. In the same attack his boat was completely destroyed and his 13-year-old nephew, who was in the boat with him, sustained shrapnel wounds throughout his body.
Eight years later he is still waiting for the assistance promised by several international agencies, as he hasn’t been able to work since the attack, and without the boat a 20-member-family lost its source of income.
On that day, Sami and his nephew had just reached the 1.5 miles naval blockade when the zionist army approached and started shooting rockets towards them. They attempted to escape to the closest beach, as there was no chance to reach the port. Once on the beach the shooting didn’t stop. Whilst attempting to escape from the boat with his nephew, it was hit by a rocket and in the explosion Sami was severely injured. He nearly bled to death waiting for medical assistance as the Israeli navy prevented any recue from reaching him until 30 minutes later.
After 3 hospitals in Gaza weren’t able to treat him the Palestinian Authority mediated in order that he could be treated in a Hospital in the ‘48 territories (AKA Israel), as the occupation had previously refused to allow him to exit Gaza. The doctors there amputated his hand and afterwards he was taken by the zionist intelligence for an interrogation before sending him back to Gaza.
This wasn’t the first attack Sami suffered, as another boat from his family had been stolen by the occupation in the past.

“As Mr. Yakub continued to preach for converts, he told his people that he would make the others work for them. (This promise came to pass.) Naturally, there are always some people around who would like to have others do their work. Those are the ones who fell for Mr. Yakub’s teaching, 100 per cent.” — The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad, chapter 55 of Message to the Blackman in America titled “The Making of Devil”
“Three blessings a Jewish man is obligated to pray daily: ‘(Blessed art Thou,) Who did not make me a gentile; Who did not make me a woman; and Who did not make me a slave.’” — Babylonian Talmud, Menahot 43b–44a
The story of the Jewish American experience that most Jews want to believe, and want the world to believe, is one of almost endless historical victimhood. They insist that they fled anti-Semitic oppression in Europe, landing safely on Ellis Island long after the Civil War’s end in 1865, and certainly some did. … continue

And here my MSM rag today (Oct. 5, 2015) has a short international-section entry with the headline “We are in an all-out war against terrorism, and we will wage it aggressively”; an AP photo of the demented bully Netanyahu; and this short text: “Under heavy domestic pressure from critics on both the right and left, Israel’s prime minister threatened to tighten the screws on Palestinian extremists as he arrived back to a country battered by a wave of deadly violence. After a meeting with top officials, Netanyahu announced a series of unprecedented security measures.” Sh………….t! — tell Sami Ali El Goga about terrorism, extremism, and (Gaza seawaters of) waves of deadly violence — committed in untold, uncountable numbers by the Zionist terrorist entity in 2007 and long before and after, continuing to today (recent waves of Zioterror against the Al-Aqsa Mosque; Ziodepredations against the tortured residents of Hebron/AlKhalil, etc.) and as far as the mind can conjure hereafter. My heart goes out to Sami and his family and people, and my condemnation and wishes go out for the most severe human and higher-level-levied judgment to be imposed on the Zionist entity, its colonialist ideology Zionism, and every soft-medium-hard adherent of Zionism wherever he/she may be and whether he/she might be Jewish, “Christian,” any other “faith,” or secular. Viva Palestine! May Zionism be erased….! First, let’s start the erasure process by ending the USrael “entangling alliance” centered in the Tel Aviv/Zio-Occupied WashDC axis of terroristic evil and taking America back from the yoke of Zionist criminal control and psychotic depravity! Then we can begin to hope and work for the end to illegal belligerent military occupation, full justice, liberation, dignity, and peace for the land and people of Palestine!
