I'm confused. Why are they under the impression that anybody but her family would care about her plight?

Are the news reports on American sentiment (war with Iraq) that f-d up?

It is unfortunate that the young girl died, however, she did put herself in harms way. The media is having a field day with this as usual. Too bad they don't seem to care as much about the Israeli's who have died at the hands of these Pali terrorist animals.

lol, good point. Protestors only get to pull that little stunt once.

Corrie was an enemy to her country, and its very difficult to feel sorry for her.

I can see her being so deluded that she wants to side with the palis and burn the flag.
What I dont get is she is doing this in front of children?
She was a very sick adult.

Who was the physician who house the bulldozer was destroying? What was the crime the doctor had convicted for that his house being destroyed?

What explanation is the IDF offering after its initial report that this young American woman ran in front of the bulldozer, when the photos clearly show her simply standing, not moving, in a brightly colored coat and what looks like a bullhorn?
