    We mark the 21st anniversary of the death of Rachel Corrie, the 23-year-old U.S. peace activist who was crushed to death by an Israeli soldier driving a military bulldozer on March 16, 2003. Corrie was in Rafah with the International Solidarity Movement to monitor human rights abuses and protect Palestinian homes from destruction when she was killed. To this day, nobody has been held accountable for her death, with the Israeli military ruling it an “accident” and the Supreme Court of Israel rejecting an appeal from her parents in 2015. Rachel Corrie has since become a symbol of solidarity with the Palestinian people, and her legacy must be used “to direct attention back to Rafah” and prevent an escalation in the war, says her friend and fellow activist Tom Dale, who witnessed her final moments. We also speak with Corrie’s parents, Cindy and Craig, who say they have met many Palestinians over the years who continue to honor their daughter’s memory. “For Palestinians everywhere, Rachel’s story has been very important,” says Cindy Corrie. “They tell us over and over again how much it meant.” After Corrie was killed, they devoted their lives to her cause and founded the nonprofit Rachel Corrie Foundation for Peace and Justice.

      Besides them, many Arab sources confirm the fact that the Holy Land was still Jewish by population and culture in spite of the Diaspora:
      ·In 985 c.e. the Arab writer Muqaddasi complained that in Jerusalem the large majority of the population were Jewish, and said that "the mosque is empty of worshippers..." .
      ·Ibn Khaldun, one of the most creditable Arab historians, in 1377 c.e. wrote:
      "Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel extended over 1400 years... It was the Jews who implanted the culture and customs of the permanent settlement".
      After 300 years of Arab rule in the Holy Land, Ibn Khaldun attested that Jewish culture and traditions were still dominant. By that time there was still no evidence of "Palestinian" roots or culture .
      ·The historian James Parker wrote: "During the first century after the Arab conquest [670-740 c.e.], the caliph and governors of Syria and the [Holy] Land ruled entirely over Christian and Jewish subjects. Apart from the Bedouin in the earliest days, the only Arabs west of the Jordan were the garrisons".
      Even though the Arabs ruled the Land from 640 c.e. to 1099 c.e., they never became the majority of the population. Most of the inhabitants were Christians (Assyrian and Armenian) and Jews.

      Thank you for doing the work. ❤
      In the 2000’s I found answers about the “conflict” difficult to find. Jewish friends could only offer vague explanations like..”Its been going on so long” as was the main deflection of the time... inferring that it was difficult to determine which side of the conflict was the perpetrator.
      Once I also did the work to understand the relationship between Palestine and Israel, it was clear as the blue sky, who had been wronged. It was a real awakening and I realized that asking questions is useless when Israeli, Jewish, Christian and Western powers control the self-serving narrative. We must all do the work to understand the truths of the world. Go beyond social media. Read listen, watch.. and everybody talk. ❤

    When I first heard about Rachel Corrie I'll be honest.
    I blew it off in a cynical way.
    "oh now American's have a victim they can care about in Palestine. An attractive blonde woman ".
    Because yes we were already jaded about the whole Israel-Palestine thing 20 years ago.
    Then a few years later I hear that my friend had been in Palestine as well.
    Instead of being crushed by a bulldozer, he was shot in the head with a tear gas canister.
    His skull was fractured but he lived. However he suffered brain damage. The last couple of times I saw him he didnt even recognize me.
    Well I suddenly felt very shallow and stupid.
    Now I cared what happened in Palestine because they took one of my own.
    Tristan isn't an attractive blonde woman. But he is one of the biggest hearted most generous people I ever met. To the point of naiveté.
    I simply can't imagine or recall him ever saying or doing anything mean spirited or even sarcastic.
    I understand he has recovered a lot but is still impaired, and that is what he got for having compassion where most people, like me, keep their cynicism.

    How can you bulldoze over a person with a high vis vest on and a megaphone in mouth by accident? Its the bs lies that anger me. Just be honest, human life means nothing to these ppl.

    My praise to the parents of Rachel Corrie and Arron Bushnell, you brought your children to reject injustice.

    Why does Amy rush these parents: "We have 30 seconds..."? NOTHING coming next could be remotely as important.
