Interesting that you bring up Rachel Corrie. It’s universally accepted that she deserved to get smashed by a Caterpillar. But what if she was raped? I’m guessing you and Dr. Scarpetta and others would have VEHEMENTLY denied that she would have deserved to be raped. So why the contradictions?

Rachel Corrie put herself in front of that bulldozer, knowing it could kill her, to make a political point. Lara Logan didn't exactly strip down and offer herself to her attackers. She was a reporter trying to do her job, and while admittedly a dangerous job, she wasn't going out there daring the crowd to assault her.

She was a reporter trying to do her job...
 
This point is often brought up by those wishing to excuse Ms. Logan.
 
But the point is that the lovely Lara is in fact a reporter. One who is engaged in excusing the violence of the leftist Jew hating mobsters in Egypt as she followed the directives of Obama and CBS,
 
Was she just trying to do her job in Afghanistan as she had sex with a married solder, costing him his marriage?
 
She - like Rachel Corrie - was on a fool's errand. I'm sorry she was attacked. Just like I'm sorry Anderson Cooper was attacked. And those Fox reporters.
 
But actions have consequences.
