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.

    What if wanting a peaceful homeland requires displacing and killing people? Or is that considered “conflating the two” in your eyes?

      displacing and killing people is VERY BAD ….
      wtf? i’m talking about NOT doing that….
      it’s possible to do without killing or displacing people… less so now than it was in the 1940’s, though….
