The Bastards bulldozed her - An American Citizen. And, we just stood and watch because it was Israel that did it.
Shame on us.

The "Rachel Corrie" aid ship is scheduled to reach Gaza. The United States Govt. has asked them to go to Israel instead. Israel has "promised" that they'll use more force this time around if the Ship attempts to break the blockade.

Rachel Corrie quotes:
I feel like I'm witnessing the systematic destruction of a people's ability to survive. It's horrifying.

Sometimes I sit down to dinner with people and I realize there is a massive military machine surrounding us, trying to kill the people I'm having dinner with.

We should be inspired by people... who show that human beings can be kind, brave, generous, beautiful, strong-even in the most difficult circumstances.

no need to inspect it if they say something nice.

8. Imagine if there were no bogie men and you had to defend your positions using logic and facts

the horror!

But no worries, you'll always have some handy red herring to blame your lunacy on. Carry on....

PS. as of yesterday Turkey was still part of NATO and one of the principal allies of the US in the "war on terror." If you are more interested in the interests of Israel than this country's, you are free to leave of course.

2. dear god... i wish i could rec this a million times.

6. She was NOT protecting civilians. She was protecting A HOUSE.

She died for someone else's real estate.

7. Good grief. Are you serious?

Have you no sense of human decency whatsoever?
