It was her methods that interested me.



She was part of ISM. They have very clear guidelines for international activists. Her friend's house was to be demolished and she tried to stop the bulldozer that ran over her twice by shouting at the driver with a megaphone, I believe and standing on a pile of of dirt so she could be seen in her high vis clothing.
There were plenty of witnesses. Her boyfriend was standing not far away.

You are wrong about that. Rachel understood the motivation for Palestinian violence and explained her reasoning to her mother in the letters that you're too lazy to read.

Then don't.

You don't mind using Rachel's death as an "example to all Palestinians" but make no attempt to understand her motivation for being there.


Annie she should not be there. You know that,



She should have been there. More people should be there. I would be there if I could.

fd is scared to read them, lest he stumble across facts that cause him to have take the side of Muslims* against the Zionists.

*Leaving aside the fact of Palestinian Christians for now, who most Western Christians abandon due to them being Arabs and therefore "One with the Saracens", just like in the days of the Crusades, when they were slaughtered en masse along with their fellow Muslim countrymen.

Did the israeli who ran her over cold bloodedly get charged with murder? Why not? Was it you?

I understand their motivation as well. That is not the same thing as condoning violence.

If there were so many witnesses, why did none bother to photograph it while it was actually happening? There would be something kind of spectacular (if a little slow) about a face-off between a protestor and a bulldozer. I would have been snapping away.

Yes. It was her business. Its everyone's business. Israel needs to be stopped. Humans are being abused (and murdered) by israelis.

Would you? You'd snap away while your friend was being murdered in front of you?

The protesters faced off with the bulldozers on a daily basis. It wasn't a one off incident.

There are photos that appear to have been taken a few minutes before and a few minutes after. Perhaps the photographer wanted to save money on film processing.

Quote:

I would not realise she was being murdered until the bulldozer hit her. I would be expecting a close call, and would see it as an excellent photo opportunity. If I wanted the death to mean anything, I would make sure I got the proof that Israelis did it. I doubt anyone taking photos in that context would fail to consider the situations they might find themselves in.

I see. Perhaps it was an accident after all.
