After the Rachel Corrie aid vessel comes the Rachel Corrie restaurant. A restaurant named after the young American woman who was killed by an IDF bulldozer in March 2003 opened in Ramallah on Sunday.
The opening event was attended by 400 guests, including Ramallah Deputy Governot Hamdan Al Barghouti and various Palestinian Authority officials.
"We wanted to somehow reward this girl, who sacrificed herself for the Palestinian people and to thank her and all of the international peace activists," Muhammad Tmeizi, one of the restaurant's owners said.

The restaurant is placed in a street also named after the American peace activist and will serve both Eastern and Western food. It is estimated to become a hit among the many international activists in Ramallah.
The restaurant was opened three days after the Haifa District Court held a hearing on a civil suit filed by Corrie's parents against the State of Israel and the Defense Ministry.
