Corrie's parents failed to get money from Caterpillar also.

"Ms. Corrie, a 23-year-old student, stood in an orange vest with a bullhorn between a bulldozer and the home"

She forgot the yellow "do not cross" tape.

The young woman was caught up in anti-Israel, anti-American, pro-PLO/HAMAS/HIZBOLLAH hatred and for Jewish Genocide in the form of Arab Human Rights causes. She made the mistake of protesting too close to a bulldozer and got what she deserved. After that, her parents tried to assuage their pain by blaming Israel and towing the PLO RACIST line in order to get brownie points and large sums of money from Israel. They failed to do that just as their daughter failed as a normal, balanced and fair human being - she was a loser who paid for her irresponsibility to herself and her family. Justice as defined by her and the PLO equals dead Jews so all I can say is good riddance to her and her ilk. Sometimes true justice actually plays itself out in matters such as this one.

Didn’t Corrie at least win a Darwin Award?

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Corrie,

Your daughter, Rachel, is dead because she was stupid. She put herself in front of an armored bulldozer in a conflict she did not understand and in a place she should not have been. She put herself out of sight of the equipment operator and was killed. While she is considered a “martyr” for whatever loony cause you subscribe, in the final analysis, Rachel is dead because she was raised by stupid parents to do stupid things. She, and you, have now paid the ultimate price for that arrogance and stupidity.

You are lucky Israel is not suing you to pay for the trauma therapy for the bulldozer operator. This trauma was inflicted upon him as the direct result of your daughter’s stupid and fatal stunt.

Sincerely, The IDF

Rachel is dead and gone. The world is a much better place since she committed suicide. She is an example many of her kind should follow.

Her family is earth scum. The fact they raised her to be such a meddler is travesty. They are representative of the scum in the White House.

Any article regarding Rachel Corrie requires this work of art just as any article written by Maureen Dowd requires pictures of Catherine Zeta-Jones:

The Death of the Flat Rachael Corrie
(w/apologies [sorta] to Gordon Lightfoot's 'Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald')

The legend lives on from Palestinians on down
Of the big thing they call a ‘bulldozer’
The dozer, it’s said, always flattens its dead
When the left wing protesters turn looney.

With a carbon steel frame sixty-two metric tons more
Than the flat Rachael Corrie weighed empty.
The blade it is true is a thing to be feared
When the treads of the dozer start rolling.

The Cat was the pride of the Israeli side
Coming back from some hill in the Gaza
As the big dozers go, it was bigger than most
With a diesel of four hundred horses

Concluding some berms with a couple of quick turns
When they left fully fueled up for Rafah
When later that day her megaphone sang
Could it be that dumb bitch they was hearin’?

The dirt in the treads made a tattle-tale sound
As the mud broke over the blading
And every man knew, as Miss Corrie did too,
T’was a big Caterpillar come dozin’.

The blade came down and the dumb twit stood her ground
When the D9 bulldozer came plowin’.
Devoid of good sense and ignoring all risk
She turned her back on the oncoming dozer.

When it finally came, the dumb bitch kept her place sayin’
Surely, they’ll stop what they’re doing.
Under the tread her air pathway caved in, she said
Dammit, this shouldn’t have happened!

Her friends called in that the blonde bitch was down,
And the bomb laden house was in peril.
And later that day when her lights went outta sight
Came the death of the flat Rachael Corrie.

Does any one know where the sense of libs go
When the blade turns the minutes to hours?
The soldiers all say she’d have got out okay
If she’d put fifteen more feet behind her.

She might have been crushed or she might have split wide;
May have broke ribs and her bladder.
And all that remains is the traces and the stains
Of her imprint, the tread tracks and splatter.

Arafat stews, Hizbollah spews
From the rooms of their compounds in Gaza.
The ISM screams like a spoiled preteen
They voice their support for the terror.

And don’t we all know, when the buses explode
They’ll march out their apologists willing,
Now activists go as the drivers all know
With the big caterpillars remembered.

In a musty old room in Ramallah they prayed,
In the ISM office of terror.
The door bell chimed till it rang seventy-two times
For each tread on the big Caterpiller.

The legend lives on from Palestinians on down
Of the big thing they call a ’bulldozer’.
The dozer, they said, always flattens its dead
When left wing protestors turn looney!

w/full credit and a tip o' the hat to the creator of the above now-legendary lyrics,

As far as I can see, she was an activist who died for her cause. She’s a huge martyr in the muslim world. Her parents should squelch their greed and accept it for what it is. They’re besmirching her memory. They’re doing exactly what they claim to be against.

...pointing out her bright garb that he said “anyone could have seen.”

Unless, of course, that bright orange vest was hiding behind the blade of the dozer...

Rachel Corrie is just one reason to not allow your kids to attend the Evergreen State College.

Sounds like Corrie’s case fell flat.

This reminds me so much of an incident in the early 1960s when some protestors were protesting something at a construction site in the US. a group of protestors threw themselves in front of a bulldozer, and the driver stopped, reversed and backed up.

What the driver did not know was there were also protestors who threw themselves behind his rig and he ran over a lib priest.

I remember the photo of the pancaked priest.

An early Darwin award before there was a Darwin award!
