    Default Rachel Corrie Bulldozer Death "Accidental" - Israeli District Court

    Rachel Corrie's parents took a civil case the the Israeli district courts over the killing of their daughter. a young peace activist crushed by a bulldozer as she stood in front of a Palestinian home about to be demolished.

    The judge said that "any right thinking person" would not have been there. From what one can see of Rachel Corrie, it was because she was an exceptionally right thinking person that she was there.

    The Haifa District Court on Tuesday ruled against the family of Rachel Corrie, the American pro-Palestinian activist struck and killed by a bulldozer in Gaza.
    In the verdict, Judge Oded Gershon invoked the principle of the combatant activities exception, noting that IDF forces had been attacked in the same area Corrie was killed just hours earlier.

    Corrie, 23, from Olympia, Washington, died in Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, on March 16, 2003, when an IDF bulldozer struck her during a protest by pro-Palestinian group the International Solidarity Movement.

    Rachel Corrie had more right to be in the Occupied Palestinian Territories than the Israeli military. The Israeli judge is wrong.

    Just watched the documentary on Bin Laden RTE, one guy who took part in it said,"if you kill Americans anywhere in the world we will find you and deal with you. Was Rachel a none person, did she not matter because she opposed the bankers of the US ?.

    Just shows that the programme was based on at least one untruth.

    In the North that attitude played out as " it's kind of ok to kill ***** because they kind of shouldn't really be here, but it's totally wrong to kill catholics because they've every right to be here ".

    This thread is about an example of Israeli justice, not sectarianism in the Six Counties.
