Rahamim (Rami) Doga

Feb 22, 2004 - Rahamim (Rami) Doga, 38, of Mevaseret Zion, was one of eight persons murdered and more than 60 wounded by a Palestinian suicide bomber on a No. 14A Egged bus opposite the capital's Liberty Bell Park.

The attack took place at about 8:30 a.m. as the crowded, rush-hour bus was making its way downtown. The Fatah Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades claimed responsibility for the attack, which was carried out by Muhammad Za'ul, from the Bethlehem area. He had boarded the bus undetected and was overlooked by two security inspectors who boarded after him and alighted before he detonated the explosives he was carrying in a backback.

Rami Doga was returning from the Talpiot section, where he had gone to obtain medicine, when he was murdered.

"He had a good heart," related his younger brother, Yigal. "He would help our mother all the time; he would look after her and it was always important for him to help mother."

Rami Doga was buried in Jerusalem. He is survived by his mother, Hanna, and eight siblings.
