But "she wasn't a radical extremist," he said. "She wasn't someone who would participate in protests for the thrill of it. She wasn't reckless." yeah. right. it isn't reckless to sit down in front of a bulldozer. not at all. good clean fun is all...

Rachel Corrie wrote that "no amount of reading, attendance at conferences, documentary viewing . . . could have prepared me for the reality of the situation here." Yeah, it took a bulldozer to do that.

The young lady was ideological dope, but running her over with a bulldozer is a bit sadistic IMHO.

Corrie's parents, Craig and Cynthia Corrie of Charlotte, N.C., released a statement saying they "are proud Rachel was able to live her convictions. Sounds like Mr. and Mrs. Lewinsky

Tough break for her I guess, but she was enabling violent terrorist and paid the price for them. If she knows the truth now she will realize she gave her life to protect scum who kill Jewish children without pause.
