Rachel Corrie, 1979-2003 (she died 22 years ago today)
Rachel, an American #peace #activist, was killed when Israeli soldiers crushed her with a #bulldozer
She was trying to prevent the demolition of a Palestinian family’s home in #rRafah by Israeli occupation forces, before they left Gaza abd turned it into a giant concentration camp.

Zionazi scum
Israelis have no shame or decency
Israeli soldiers have depraved “fun” making “Rachel Corrie pancakes”
@PanArab fucking insane.
It is sickening to see such barbaric society being so protected and spported by so many people calling themselves civilized
Fuck Israel.
“She was clearly an agent of the enemy” - USA govt, probably.
Given how they treat domestic protesters and activists, it’s no surprise, unfortunately.
They actually pretended to care, set up an investigation and even went to court, but the soldier driving the Caterpillar bulldozer was freed from any wrong doing and put the blame on her for putting herself in front of the bulldozer “doing it’s job”.
Her parents setup the Rachel Corrie foundation that is very active and supporting Palestinian struggle for independent and justice.
Her martyrdom was when I realized Israel must be opposed, I think. I didn’t consciously understand it (I wasn’t even a teenager yet) and didn’t have any theoretical basis for my opposition, but it as after her death I started questioning the Zionist narrative.
They tried to bury her. They didn’t realize she was a seed.
It was the election right before that, when both sides voted in warhawks, that I threw my hands up and decided I could give a fuck if we just nuke the whole region at that point. 🫤
I never forget the moment I saw the video of her murder.
It was before Israel forced all web sites to remove the video.
I think I still have it on one of my backup tapes
If you find it, upload somewhere, like archive.org, it’s journalistic footage
Such cowardly soldiers.
They conscript them at a young age. It’s easy to get a child to follow orders, especially when you drown then in propoganda for most of their lives.
@Dirtgrain and they want us to think it all started o October 7, 2023
A Caterpillar bulldozer to be precise. Boycott Caterpillar.
Shoot I was just about to pick up 10 caterpillar bulldozers. Guess I’ll have to meet my bulldozing needs somewhere else.
exactly
Fortunatelly, ‘…the government of the United States is unsatisfied with the IDF’s closure of its official investigation into Corrie’s death.’
The finger wagging has been intensified but the winking and nodding will continue.
“US is unsatisfied”
But they’re going to continue funding them to the tune of billions a year. Arming them in the middle of a genocide, ensuring the flows of weapons continue. Continue supplying them with intelligence. Continue defending them at the UN security council with vetos, continue crushing campus protestors and painting them as anti-semites. Continue to maximally defend and protect the zionist project.
I’m sure the US is also “unsatisfied” with the IDF’s actions in attacking the USS Liberty, a US flagged military ship which zionist warplanes repeatedly strafed and intentionally attacked decades ago in what is under international law an act of war. And yet nothing has or will change because these are just meaningless words.
I wonder how much the U.S would care about Israel if the Suez canal didn’t exist.
Someone needs to point missiles at Iran. Defense is good for business as much as trade routes 🤷
You are joking, right?
