They Drove Right Over Her

" On 16 March 2003 in Rafah, occupied Gaza, 23-year-old American peace activist Rachel Corrie from Olympia, Washington, was murdered by an Israeli bulldozer driver. Rachel was in Gaza opposing the bulldozing of a Palestinian home as a volunteer with the International Solidarity Movement."

A bunch of people I know in Seattle were friends with her.

Events like this diminish the entire human race.
