  1. In fact, Rachel gave a message to the world that Israel's barbarism must stop… even though she had to give up the only life Rachel had.

  2. The only mistake or miscalculation that Rachel committed was believing that you can safely protest the Murderous state of Israel , a state that has not respect for human life unless the life is Israeli. The world bears witness to the massacre the Genocide of the Palestinian people.

  3. Via Rachael I found this channel. Subscribed.❤Rachael’s parents should feel very proud, how many of us achieve even 1% in our entire lives, that Rachael’s 23 year’s life, achieved as humanitarians !?

  4. Malala (an escaped victim) gets a noble peace prize…
    RACHEAL (a HERO, Lioness +victim) Didn’t even gets justice …
    Difference = Rachael fighting for Muslims…. Malala = defaming & fighting against Islam…
    I remember Rachael Corrie’s speech in UN or at children’s Parliament when she was 6 or 7.

  5. What a Hero, a Shaheed & a Martyr…. She’s in our hearts ❤❤❤
    Such a shame America doesn’t celebrate the real Hero…😢

  6. This is not culpable murder while she voluntarily put herself in a dangerous position. According to eyewitness accounts: "she knelt down at least 15 meters in front of the bulldozer, and began waving her arms and shouting." I think the bulldozer operator lied when interviewed. He knew she was there. an investigation by the United Nations found that Corrie was clearly visible to the bulldozer driver, and that the driver had deliberately run her over.

    In general, the 'peace' activists were endangering other people and provoking the IDF creating the atmosphere that caused the incident. It could have been an intentional provocation on her behalf. Everybody took this too far and a death occurred. But, a lot of people on both sides have died and will continue to die in this conflict.

    Both Palestinian and Israelis should work for peace. The International Solidarity Movement (ISM) is a Palestinian-led movement focused on assisting the Palestinian cause in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Some critics have accused the ISM of being a pro-Palestinian propaganda organization that does not genuinely support peace. Whether or not the ISM is truly a peace movement is a matter of opinion. Some ISM volunteers may be more focused on supporting the Palestinian cause than on promoting peace. Craig and Cindy talk very little about 'real peace' and 'real justice' in their interview. No, Israel has not expanded into Gaza, there is no plan to expand.

  7. It's 2023, I've come across and read of Rachel Corrie the peace activist who died from being crushed by an Israeli bulldozer but this the first time I've heard it from her parent's point of view. It is very eye opening and the fact that they can sit there and peacefully talk about their daughter's murder in hopes to make people understand really what is happening in Palestine just makes my heart burst with emotions and admiration. May God put Rachel with those in the highest of ranks. May God bless her wonderful parents who are still purporting the cause and spreading awareness on the issue. Rachel paid attention to Palestine when most of the world were still asleep. With social media, more of the Palestinian voices are being heard now and you see countries like Ireland and Scotland openly supporting the Palestinian cause. Malaysia has never had diplomatic ties with Israel thank goodness. God is good and good will conquer evil. Free free Palestine ❤🕊

  8. It is disgusting, I cannot believe how the victims of the WWII, now are committing the same crimes against the poor Palestinians…. I wonder how history repeats itself but people don't learn from it…
    I know this is very painful for Rachel's parents but I believe "Rachel" parents should be proud and happy to have such a hero daughter…
    They should compare their own daughter with many of shallow and aimless teen-agers…. They should know that their daughter taught a good lesson to everybody in this world…. Unfortunately the American news media, as usual was silent regarding this crime….
