Mahmoud Sarsak - Palestinian Hunger Striker Footballer - London Talk

27 May 2013



Mahmoud Sarsak

Mahmoud Sarsak is a Palestinian footballer who was abducted, tortured and caged by Israel for 3 years without charge or trial. He finally won his freedom last year after enduring 96 days of hunger strike which mobiliesed an international campaign for his release.

During his first public meeting in the UK Mahmoud Sarsak spoke at length of how he was detained by Israel, of the methods of torture deployed by Israel against him, of his hunger strike, of the suffering caused by Israel's occupation of Palestine, of the destruction of Gaza's sporting and other facilities by Israel, of how unjust it is that a prestigious sporting competition such as the UEFA Under 21 soccer championships has been awarded to Israel when Israel continues to do so much to prevent Palestinians from taking part in sports and of his plans for the future.

Meeting was called by the Islington Friends of Yibna, Payday men’s network, and the International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network.

"[Deportation at the airport] We saw the injured [Turkish] men going through.. a lot had a leg cut out of their trousers or an arm cut out of their top. It had been cut out to treat their wounds.. they were covered in blood, blood that had been there for three days, and some of them had wounds that were still bleeding.. What upset me most was seeing the dozen men, one after another, hobbling across the terminal, with a bandaged foot. I couldn't ask them why so many of them had a bandaged foot, I couldn't ask them what had happened, because if they spoke or if any of us spoke to them the Israelis beat the injured person.. We later found out that they had these injuries on the tops of their feet from when the troops came down from the helicopter on the Mavi Marmara, and they came down firing - they had been shot from above. Some of the men that were killed were shot at close range - head and chest, but a dozen of the men who were shot, among 59 people who were shot, they were shot at the tops of their feet - the bullets were coming down.. They weren't given a wheelchair or a pair of crutches, and if any of the other passengers stood up and tried to offer [help].. that person was dragged away and smacked by these Israelis. The Israeli soldiers sat on the floor, laughed and sniggered and made every one of these Turkish men hobble and hop all the way across, some 200 metres, everyone of them, one by one, made to do that purely for the sick amusement of the Israeli soldiers."
