Ms Corrie and several other Americans were protesting the illegal demolition of Palestinian homes by Israeli bulldozers. When a dozer approached the next home...Ms Corrie stood her ground and refused to move from its path. She was wearing a bright red jacket so she was clearly seen by the driver. The driver ignored her presence and ran her over, then backed up over her again to finish the job. He did nothing to assist her after the event. |

Turn the dead victim into the aggressor to justify their wanton disregard for human life and deliberate murder. Why isn't the dozer driver on trial for murder?

The view is very limited for the bulldozer driver.. Anyone who's stupid enough to put himself infront of a giant D9 like that should bear the consequences. |

Quoting: heresjohnny [link to electronicintifada.net] TOM DALE EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT British Citizen from Lichfield, Birmingham, born 17 August 1984. Many of you will of heard varying accounts of the death of Rachel Corrie, maybe others will have heard nothing of it. Regardless, I was 10 metres away when it happened 2 days ago, and this is the way it went. We’d been monitoring and occasionally obstructing the 2 bulldozers for about 2 hours when 1 of them turned toward a house we knew to be threatened with demolition. Rachel knelt down in its way. She was 10-20 metres in front of the bulldozer, clearly visible, the only object for many metres, directly in its view. They were in radio contact with a tank that had a profile view of the situation. There is no way she could not have been seen by them in their elevated cabin. They knew where she was, there is no doubt. The bulldozer drove toward Rachel slowly, gathering earth in its scoop as it went. She knelt there, she did not move. The bulldozer reached her and she began to stand up, climbing onto the mound of earth. She appeared to be looking into the cockpit. The bulldozer continued to push Rachel, so she slipped down the mound of earth, turning as she went. Her faced showed she was panicking and it was clear she was in danger of being overwhelmed. All the activists were screaming at the bulldozer to stop and gesturing to the crew about Rachel’s presence. We were in clear view as Rachel had been, they continued. They pushed Rachel, first beneath the scoop, then beneath the blade, then continued till her body was beneath the cockpit. They waited over her for a few seconds, before reversing. They reversed with the blade pressed down, so it scraped over her body a second time. Every second I believed they would stop but they never did. I ran for an ambulance, she was gasping and her face was covered in blood from a gash cutting her face from lip to cheek. She was showing signs of brain hemorrhaging. She died in the ambulance a few minutes later of massive internal injuries. She was a brilliant, bright and amazing person, immensely brave and committed. She is gone and I cannot believe it. |

She hated Jewish people and sided with their enemies and now she's dead. That will be the fate of all that come against Israel. Oh yes, it's reasonable to you to call her a Nazi. We get it. If one opposes the illegal actions of Israel, one is a Nazi. What a fucked up bitch you are. |

He is a "Christian" who blindly and completely supports Zionism in all its forms. "Fucked up" is just the first emotion that is typically invoked, after which, is usually a sense of sadness at how pathetic some of the sheep truly are. |
