...someone will try to bury this matter, by slipping it under the door, or individuals will ignore warnings similiar to those given to people who stand in the way of large units of construction equipment. The situation will be discussed at a memorial pancake breakfast. Hard hats and day glow construction area vests are suggested.

She wanted to make a statement & she did. Too bad we're still hearing about her stupidity a decade after she Darwin Awarded out.

Though the young lady's death was most unfortunate; she had no business being where she was. She and the other "useful idiots" were warned repeatedly to leave; THEY DID NOT FOLLOW LAWFUL ORDERS. The driver of the bulldozer stated that he did not see her. It's unfortunate also that her parents weren't with her at the time.

"The family of slain American activist Rachel Corrie . . . ." This language implies that Corrie was murdered. Is that what Y-net wants to say? There are multiple instances of Israeli government officials, apparently ignorant of subtleties of the English language, making self-incriminating statements.

.... has exhausted their appeals in the United States, too. They're just looking for money. That's a scurrilous motive. That said, it is very important to keep a few things in mind: 1. Rachel Corrie signed a statement in which she stated that her sole purpose in visiting the State of Israel was tourism. That makes Corrie a liar. 2. The home she was so foolishly trying to protect was actually a shell home, whose sole purpose was to act as a smuggling tunnel entry and terminus point. No one lived in that home, it concealed a smuggling tunnel. That makes Corrie a terrorist sympathizer. Corrie got precisely what she deserved. The Israeli Supreme Court should reject the Corrie family's petition out-of-hand. The family, as I said, wants money -- they've got three lawsuits going trying to acquire a portion of the proceeds of two plays -- one in the United Kingdom, one in the United States -- that showed for a time (but closed following less than rave reviews; the New York show closed after one night!). If she's that desperate for cash, perhaps Mrs. Corrie should simply get a job, instead of opting for pecuniary gain at the expense of her dead, lying, terrorist daughter. No great loss, though, I must say.

What, pray tell, are "Zions?" Do you mean "Zionists?" How did you manage to escape the fourth grade? Rachel Corrie LIED on her application to enter the State of Israel. She asserted that her purpose in traveling to Israel was tourism. It wasn't. She came to give aid and comfort to Israel's enemies. She was killed defending a "house" that was not inhabited -- it disguised a tunnel egress, which the "Palestinians" used to smuggle weapons with which to kill Jews. You are really out of your league on these threads, dear. Stick to cheerleading or whatever it is you do. Academic and political discourse is beyond your ken.

The idiot thought she was invincible. She should not have been in a war zone in the first place. Yankees go home.

her, slit her throat and put her lying dead in front of Israeli bulldozer.

History is a witness to that fact.

Rachel Corrie is responsible for her own death, She was over defiant of the Israeli Military Autority and got what she was looking for.

I don't get these parents, what more do they want? Rachel Corrie thought it was a good idea to jump in front of a moving 60 ton bulldozer? Didn't she stop and think why her Hamas friends never did? Can you imagine the look on their faces when she actually ran in front of the bulldozer and they were screaming "Rachel! We were only joking...." Rachel Corrie justifiably won the Platinum Darwin Award, her parents should be proud.

They should have taught her never to play in traffic.

to those with different laws; maybe it's time we realize two years of gun toting and wearing heavy armaments don't offer us immunity from Father's law. He's gonna want to know who killed His daughter, and the circumstances surrounding it. IDF, you need to do a better job educating your young people that killing, even in wartime, is not sanctioned, it happens; it's unfortunate but we should grieve the loss of every person and every animal as Father would, out of respect for Him if nothing else. We shouldn't let our anger become hate, and we shouldn't let our pain become anger. Grieve it, apologize to Father for it, try not to ever do it again, but defending oneself against accusations like this are a poor use of energy, we should all feel awful for killing someone, because they don't belong to us. They belong to Father; andit is He who can remove the penalty and it is He who can forgive us and take away our grief. This situation should never have escalated this far. A simple, "I killed your daughter, and I'm really sorry" should be enough. If this is about money- well, I'm not gonna comment about that, but I will say this; the IDF needs to remain accountable to Yahweh to survive, and the IDF needs to be different than all the other armies, because Israel claims to be Jewish, that means we are set apart and also claim to follow Father's laws. It can't be either or. So really, this incident caught us in the middle of an identity dilemma; and Rachel isn't fallen, she's a highlighter. Someone who shed light on this discrepancy in our ways. Our words did not match our actions, thank you Father for sending Rachel to give her life and help us see where we were wrong. Such a gentle gift, so unassuming as to not run out from in front of a bulldozer. She gave her life to bring us home, home to Abba; if we are Jewish, we need to be like this in all our ways. Let's face it, let's face it together. We screwed up, and we can't fix it. Let's just leave it at that; and let's ask Father, and His Son, to fix it for us, because only they have the perfect answer to heal this. No one wants to stand before Father and explain why they killed His daughter, no one; trust me. IDF, we can perform better, I know it, let's do it, let's act like we keep our eyes focused on the kingdom of heaven. This is it. This is the way we should live. As if we are in the Kingdom of Heaven now. May Father nurture and care for all those hurt by this event, amen, and forgive us our sins and the trespasses against us.

and just like the reasoning used in Mississippi when a Jewish guy named Goodman from New York came into Mississippi (a civil rights war zone at the time) and stirred up trouble. The local officials took care of the problem (he was killed) and the local judicial system exonerated the killers. He was just in the wrong place...too bad.... but no big loss. Ms. Corrie was a true civil rights activist and Israel has become the new South Africa.

You stand in front of a bulldozer, you get crushed. If you do that intentionally, it is suicide.

Rachel Corrie was in the wrong place at the wrong time and it was of her own doing. I am sure the Palestinians wouldn't be wasting any time worrying about the IHOP poster girl and either should Israel.

the parents let their daughter go to a foreign land at war. the daughter willingly entered a war zone where she did not belong. the daughter then willingly stood in front of a moving bulldozer thinking that she could change the course of history. she lived as a useless idiot and died as a useless idiot.

I bet you are going to next tell us that some of your best friends are Jews.Face the fact that Corrie was a a supporter of Hamas suicide bombers and was trying to lure IDF troops out in the open where they would be easy targets for Hamas snipers.She also hated AMERICA as evidenced by the photot of her burning an American flag with a crazed look on her face.You obviously choose to overlook reality or perhaps that is how you prefer to live your life.Like John Wayne said "Life is tough and its even tougher if you are stupid."

she deserved what she got being in a closed military area. As for her family they can go to hell. Or better let them go to iran or saudia . sick anti semites.

Do you have other kids you can send to Syria? They butchered150,000 people and it does not seem to bother you. Your daughter should have been at Uni, boy friend and pubs, not in a war zone.

Jews cannot expect justice outside of Israel. History is a witness to that fact.

for no cause at all. Rachel Corrie was a stupid young woman who wanted to be lauded as a heroine. She picked a bad cause and made a fatally stupid stance. A tragic waste of a young life; but, her choice.

If you truly are Ashley Smith which I doubt, you must have FLUNKED GRADE ONE ENGLISH. Now go crawl back under the rock from which you came.

Federal lawsuit Corrie v. Caterpillar was filed and dismissed, that's all, there was no appeal. A hearing on this case didn't see the daylight in US Congress it was killed in House Foreign Affairs Committee by closet homie I. Ros-Lehtinen a Likud mole on Capitol Hill and swept under the rug. For more in regard to new developments on this case and proof that you're nothing but liar and BS peddler google 'The Israeli Court System on Trial: The Rachel Corrie Appeal' and knock yourself out ,...

Non-made up history is witness to this fact

Rachel Corrie LIED on her application to enter the State of Israel. She asserted that her purpose in traveling to Israel was tourism. Yes, well she is the sort that has no problem with Obama claiming he was born in Hawaii and a Christian after he had already claimed he was born in Kenya and a Muslim. If the truth doesn't fit their picture they just change it to whatever they like. My 4th grade teacher would have flunked her.

Rachel Corrie was trying to make a statement and she did a final statement of mass stupid. Good riddance to bad rubbish may the rest of her pals join her in hell. KEEP BUILDING ISRAEL FOR JEWS!!

Here we go again. Dragging out the dead body again to beat the drums of anti Israel. Rachel made the mistake of being in a place she shouldn't have been. Her parents are at fault for allowing her to travel to Gaza, they are to blame no one else except the stupid girl who walked into a war zone
