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 #Rafah by Israeli occupation forces, before they left Gaza and turned it into a giant concentration camp.

The “22 years ago” part is shocking to many people, because it has only recently (within the past two or three years) started making headlines. My first roommate was Palestinian, and most of his family was wiped out by Israel. He fled to the US to escape them. His family used to own an olive farm, but it was burned and bulldozed, and the land was given to some Israeli “settlers” instead. He had photos of the farm, and it was a beautiful picturesque scene.

He told me about that like a decade ago, and said it had been going on for at least a decade prior. He even lamented the fact that nobody even knew about it, because the American news was refusing to report on it.

No greater love than this, that a (hu)man lay down their life for their brothers/sisters. 😻✊

I'm conflicted. Glad she was such a comrade, but would much rather the bulldozer driver's life been laid down instead.

Well, we want things. That's human.

I knew a few of her classmates, but I never met her myself. Got involved with activist groups as a result and ended up taking a colloquial arabic class from a Palestinian. He was so adamantly hopeful about peace in the region I am sadly glad he passed in 2018 of natural causes.

Of course Zionists being the classy and decent people they are celebrate her death by making pancakes.

Aren't these the people that scream about the Holocaust and shit? Fucks sake man, no moral compass these people.

The mere idea of soldiers celebrating having killed an innocent, unarmed person is disgusting.

Anyone downvoting this comment is so far up Israel's backside that they can't see how horrid this is.

Could they stomach the idea of people on social media mocking their own family member's death?

I severely doubt it.

Imagine being the kind of mind that downvotes this comment. Like why are they downvoting? "I disagree with this verifiable fact"? "I refuse to believe this is true"? "Maybe if I downvote this people will question the validity of this fact"?

They're the kind of people who straight up make a full governmental funded guide about what Israeli people should say online.

This is an attempt to give this regurgitated bullshit credibility by having as many people as possible saying the same information online, since "if all these people are saying it then it must be true"

Unfortunately this is the Zionist moral ceiling
