It’s official; every last iota of sympathy I had for Rachel Corrie’s parents is now gone. As Arafat the shriveled nightmare garden gnome and his thug bodyguards look on patronizingly, Cindy and Craig Corrie present him with a portrait of Saint Rachel.

At first I thought this was a joke, but now I'm not sure. I could not find any confirmation on the web. Is this for real? If it is, these are sick, sick parents.

Corrie's parents present to Arafat

Well, at least now we know who brainwashed her.

[PeaceCorpsGuy]

Arafat= Bin Laden!
Corries= Traitors!

Message to Attorney General Ashcroft: Deport all traitors under the Patriot Act!

Actually I think it's Arafat giving the picture to the Corries----------->>>>

Cindy and Craig Corrie, right, parents of late American peace activist Rachel Corrie display the Bethlehem 2000 medal awarded by the Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat (news - web sites) at his office in the West Bank town of Ramallah Thursday Sept. 25, 2003. Corrie was run over and crushed to death by an Israeli army bulldozer on March 16, 2003, while she was trying to stop it from tearing down a building in the Rafah refugee camp, witnesses said.

And Chairman Arafat presented the Corries with a small token of his appreciation...

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

LOL

[The_Media_never_lie]

Wow, then this must be true.

The truth is definitely stranger than fiction. And I thought red diaper babies went out in the 50s......

What a tradgedy to have been born a child of these two.

[Diogenesis]

The late Rachel Corrie busy teaching children to burn the American flag and hate America.

Remember those special "sunglasses" worn by Roddy Piper in the great movie They Live! ? Well, I found a pair and got the REAL picture:



Don't miss the lyrics to the song Rachel Corrie, with a graphic image Eric Cartman would approve of, too! And a skit script for Monty Python fans: The Death of Rachel Corrie, Queen of Gaza / Exploding Infant on the TV Set.

Opinion Journal mentions the incident. Scroll down to "Birds of a Feather".

[jonalvy44]

I'm crushed...

her blood is on their hands. Their liberal ideology is responsible.

Arafat, of course, wished she had blown herself up instead, taking the tractor driver with her...

[BSunday]

Well, they DO look just as I suspected - like a couple of world class flakes.

[Stultis]

Oh, wouldn't it be lovely if the IDF had closed off Terrorfat's compound just then, leaving those scum trapped inside (with the other scum). It sickens me that they'll be coming back to America.

[SkyPilot]

Y'all check out the pictures on the wall of post #11 too!

Once upon a time there were several Freepers who authored a whole creative thread dedicated to Rachel, the "martyr" of the Pal Solidarity crowd.


From that thread (a few of the nicer poems):

---

From my mother's alternative kindergarten I fell into the progressive agenda
and crouched in Evergreen College till my wet ears perked
miles from reality loosed in a dream of Marxism
I woke to adulation from third world thugs and grew brave with hubris
and when I died they scooped me up from foreign sands with a spatula.

(Apologies to Randall Jarrell)

Rachel, Rachel, a young Leftist fool,
removed herself from the Corrie gene pool.

With parents like that, the expression "Children of the Damned" takes on a sharp and profound relevance.

Great photoshoping of that photo. "They Live", one of my favorite movies.
