31. Ms. Corrie, let's note, was a collaborator with the thugs of
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (03.29.13)
Hamas and Islamic Jihad; providing their operatives with a human shield so as to protect those who, behind such shield, targeted the Jewish children of Israel to be mass murdered. Anyone elevating the image of this woman does nothing short of elevating the image of a collaborators with mass murderers who are viewed, worldwide, as lawless terrorists. Her motive: The victims of those targeted by her comrades were Jews!!
32. Does the play include her ripping a burned American Flag
k ,   US   (03.29.13)
I bet you guys left that out You can see pictures of her ripping up a burned American flag with this evil look on her face But I am sure that is not part of the "image" you all want to show her as Better to make believe she is a "human rights" activist
33. rest in peace rachel...you are heroine
adam adam ,   earth planet   (03.29.13)
rachel is brave woman and heroine
34. not even worth going 2 protest...
(03.29.13)
just remind them that if they presented such an anti-Arab play in one of the Moslem countries they would be hung.
35. #14
Howard ,   Seattle USA   (03.29.13)
From your many posts it is clear that you have a hatred of Israel and the Jewish people.However being that you want us to remember her burnig a US flag in front of Palestinian school children with that crazed look oh her face takes the dephs of your depravity to new lows.You really should seek some counseling.
36. How???
chris K ,   Quantico USA   (03.29.13)
Do you not get out of the way of a Bulldozer??? Was she really run down intentionally or was this yet another case of suicide by Heavy Construction Equipment. I am dubious.
37. The long awaited announcment...
Gideon Reader   (03.29.13)
...of the venue has been made....... The International House of Pancakes (IHOP). Vendors sold kefiyahs, rocks, screaming lozenges and the ever popular jen-u-whine Vermont Maple Syrup. Sausage is optional. She is Deere to so many.
38. Jehudah, #31, wrong. She was much worse. She acted against
Rachel ,   Ottawa, Canada   (03.29.13)
the first human right, the right of people to live and defend their lives. Her anti-human rights, however, was singled out against Jews, and only because they were Jewish, including Jewish children, residing in the national home of the Jewish people.
39. Few on the left remembers
Conroy ,   Toronto Canada   (03.29.13)
Few on the left remembers that in 2002 Hamas and other suicide bombers were blowing up innocent men, women and children on a regular basis and Corrie's role with the ISM was to protect the terrorists from the IDF. And that's exactly what she was doing when accidentally struck by an IDF bulldozer. Suicide bombers deserve to die and so do their protectors. Burn in hell Corrie.
40. Fire Limor Livnat
Sidney ,   USA   (03.29.13)
The idea that the taxpayers of Israel must finance an anti-Israel play is ridiculous.
41. INSANE!!!
Beni B ,   Baltimore   (03.29.13)
This is just too crazy! -- Leftist rubbish indeed!
42. CONFUCIUS SAYS ...
CONFUCIUS ,   SAFED ,CHINA   (03.29.13)
Do not mess with a bulldozer.
43. hateful talkbackers
Adam ,   Cork   (03.29.13)
I guess they would have considered the anonymous man from the Tiananmen Square protest an idiot and thug as well. The talk-backers here are truly a vile lot
44. When Islamists kill ISM members noone cares...
Jane   (03.29.13)
In 2011 an Italian member of the International Solidarity Movement Vittorio Arrigoni, was kidnapped and killed by Islamist extremist in Gaza City. Anybody heard anybody cares anybody wrote a play? http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4057173,00.html
45. Corrie Political activist not Human Rights activist
David N. ,   Haifa, ISRAEL   (03.30.13)
Are we to be moved by a work of fiction? I do not revel in Corrie's death, and I know that her family has grieved. Yet that does not constitute a type of automatic righteousness for Corrie's actions in Gaza. She ingratiated herself with Men of Violence, and was not showing compassion or respect to the suffering or the dead of Israel. Thus she was a sectarian political activists, and not a human rights activist.
46. #43
Matt ,   Ashdod   (03.30.13)
You seem to be a little hard of comprehension. Was that man acting as a human shield for a murderous terrorist organisation? Was he working for a deeply unjust cause?
47. To Adam of Cork, No. 43. When a person such as Corrie acts
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (03.30.13)
contrary to the very first of all human rights, i.e. the right to life and the defense of one's life, you can't expect humans to hold her in high esteem, can you? You see, we, Jews, are humans too, and her activity involved the physical protection of the very ones who set out and acted upon the mass murder of Jewish children. Hence, one only wonders, what causes you to view her with the respect and admiration that you do...??
48. Pornography
David Seor ,   Florida, USA   (03.30.13)
This is no different than pornography and government funds should not be used to support the festival.
49. Who needs this rubbish in Hebrew?
Israeli grandma   (03.30.13)
The attempts to make ISM member Corrie into a martyr continue. She put herself in danger, and was killed. Her family can not come to terms with the fact that their difficult daughter who also burned American flag in public was a deluded fool. The anti-Israel brigade applaud uncritically any attempts to make Israel look bad.
50.  All American children know "if u play in traffic....
here and now ,   Israel   (03.31.13)
you will wind up dead!" Did the anti-semite Corrie miss that important lesson? Or was she home schooled and her parents taught her that its fine to be a self centered fool because the world will re-route their entire way of being just to satisfy you? Or is it that this self-hating American flag burner needed more of a thrill in her life and so she went and joined up with a bunch of terrorists who were only too happy to help her to death?! Enough with this idiotic girl and her ilk!
51. @28 that means the driver couldn't c the fool in the way!
Just Sayin' ,   Israel   (03.31.13)
thank you for pointing that out
52. Rachel Corrie Died Defending Terrorist
Chaim Ben Kahan ,   Efrat, Israel   (04.01.13)
It's tragic that the Rachel corrie through away her life to protect Hamas smuggling tunnels. However, her death was her own fault.
53. She was an anti-Semite and terrorist
ReuvenF   (04.01.13)
supporter. Shw as also very, very stupid.
54. A collaborator to a criminal act is a criminal, and so was
Rachael Feldman ,   USA   (04.01.13)
Ms. Corrie: collaborating with the thugs of Hamas and Islamic Jihad to bring about the mass murder of Jewish children, only because they were Jewish and residing peacefully in their national home of Israel. Therefore, no need to morn an active racist and terrorist who died while on this mission.
