Gaza Surf Club isn't preachy/dramatic, its filled w a zest for life/freedom, though it doesn't sugarcoat the occupation, or Gaza's prospects

Gaza is often dubbed an open air prison, but its waters aren't free either, w the Israeli blockade restricting fishing (and sports) to 6nm

Gaza weathered 2 major wars & innumerable air raids in the last 8 yrs. The Trumpanyahu doctrine doesn't portend anything good for its people
