[...] His story sheds the light on the daily suffer and human details of Palestinian family who was turned to homeless as Israeli Occupation Forces destroyed their home in the refugee camp of Rafah, south of Gaza, last year. He shares his experiences reporting from Israeli Occupied Gaza and talks about the demolishing of his home (to build Israel’s ‘Apartheid Wall‘), the killing of his young brother by seven bullets of the ‘Israeli Terrorist Forces,’ and the killing of activist Rachel Corrie, via an Israeli bulldozer.

God have mercy on her soul. Simply, she was a great person.

People aren’t afraid of her words, it’s just a bad play. I saw it, and thought the acting was, dare I say, a bit flat.

ISM supports and aids terror organisations. Rachel Corrie was part of ISM. Rachel Corrie: Dead Terrorist.

Why do I have the feeling you don’t want to hear this?

But before you delete this post…read this….

Sorry for my limit of $50,000.00 a year.
The average wage in NA is less than that. The UAW, CAW, IBEW, UA and other unions are controlled by big business (these unions are now big business) and they are making the average person poor.
That is my prejudice.
They make more money to make other people poor. No equality here!

Raymond,
Are you watching the news? Did you see the CNN live interview with the American professor in Janin who was kidnapped by Palestinian militants. It was live and I’ll be interested to see if it is shown again because it was TOTALLY sympathetic to the Palestinians even after he had just been kidnapped and released!
He made a point to say we hear in the States don’t get the news showing the TRUE facts of the occupation. Catch it if you can, and keep a thought in your heart for Rachel!

correction: Gross’ article cites eight women named Rachel, not six, as previously stated.

I think also the part about Rachel being Jewish is a rumour. It is irrelevant, as stated, whether she was or not, as she was unjustly killed. I took the liberty of reading the wikipedia entry on her, and found that someone had written a piece naming six other women named Rachel, all of them Jewish, all of whom suffered tragic deaths (The Forgotton Rachels – Tom Gross). It is very unfortuneate that anyone, regardless of their namesake, would be murdered, by bombs or bulldozers. What Gross’ article does, however, is promote the notion that six Rachels trump the one. It is a rather sad misappropriation of tragedy.

Perhaps when the occupation of Palestine has ended, we shall together mourn and celebrate all of the Rachels. Perhaps and perhaps.

Kimmy,
I think not trusting anyone earning over $50,000 US a year is its own prejudice. If someone offered you that salary, you would turn it down? I think you should rather judge people by their actions, not on how much money they earn.

I don’t want to blame Zionists for everything because there are many Americans who are not Zionists who also run big corp.
If I blame every Zionist for our world woes I would be a predujist.
In this modern world, race and/or religion can be very controlling of people and industry.
Let me just say that I don’t trust anyone earning over $50,000.00 US a year. They are the people who look down on everyone else.

Ror anyone reading this site:
If you want to know more about Rachel, please log on to the Wikipedia site about her. It has over 100 links to information both about her and the Palestinian issue. Those links will probably have more links. The information is out there for EVERYONE to avail themselves of. Do not just support Zionism without knowing what you are supporting. Do this for Rachel so that at least you know why she was willing to die. Do this out of curiosity if nothing else.

Dave,
Are you sure? Don’t mean to question you but could you show me evidence to the contrary? That’s what my impression was, please corrent me if I’m wrong. In the end you’re right, it does NOT diminish her power as a symbol of justice and love.
Thanks

Robin,
While it has been reported in a handful of places, Rachel was not Jewish. This doesn’t make her words and actions less powerful and inspiring nor her death less tragic and senseless, but for the record, she was not Jewish.

Kimmy,
My dear man, you think such evil thoughts tehetehe.
Of course he is a figure head, a bobble head.

But who is behind much of big corp? You got it! Zionist interests or at least those that support them. Haitham puts stuff about the Zionist media on here all the time, check it out. When there is a need to squelch a story to cover their crimes, they WILL exercise their control. This particular case of Rachel is heartbreaking because she herself is Jewish, but not a Zionist.
