If you do a google image search “Rachel Corrie death” you’ll come across the sequence of the encounter, from the approach by Corrie’s group, the ISM (International Solidarity Movement) to the fatal aftermath. (Includes Arabs draping her corpse with a fake American flag. The protesting group split into two clusters of about four and two. No arabs involved, from closeups published all the ISM folk were American/Euro.
I had never considered her a possible suicide before but after viewing the series of photographs I now suspect that to be a very strong possibility. Chief factor being the demeanor of her cohort around her moments after the collision. Couple this with the photos of her isolated, out in front. There’s no way that I would have stood still as her friends appear to have done. Finally, its clear from earlier photos that aside from being very angry, she had a very serious eating disorder. The clues might not be evident unless one has personal witnessed and tried to deal with one so afflicted. We develop very sharp eyes.
