rt as another peace activist sits in shock, Al-Najjar Hospital, Rafah, Occu=
pied Gaza. Rachel was killed by an Israeli bulldozer driver while protestin=
g the demolition of a Palestinian home. (Mohammad Al-Moghair)=20
On 16 March 2003 in Rafah, occupied Gaza, 23-year-old Ame=
rican peace activist Rachel Corrie from Olympia, Washington, was murdered b=
y an Israeli bulldozer driver. Rachel was in Gaza opposing the bulldozing o=
f a Palestinian home as a volunteer with the International Solidarity Movem=
ent.=20
An e-mailed report from the Palestine Monitor stated:=20
=
=20
Rachel Corrie (ISM Handout)=20
The girl, Rachel Corey [sic], 23 years old from the sta=
te of Washington, was killed while she was trying to prevent Israeli army b=
ulldozers from destroying a Palestinian home. Other foreigners who were wit=
h her said the driver of the bulldozer was aware that Rachel was there, and=
continued to destroy the house. Initially he dropped sand and other heavy =
debris on her, then the bulldozer pushed her to the ground where it proceed=
ed to drive over her, fracturing both of her arms, legs and skull. She was =
transferred to hospital, where she later died. Another foreigner was also i=
njured in the attack and has been hospitalized - at this stage his national=
ity is unknown.(15 March 2003)
A press release from the International Solidarity Movemen=
t stated that:=20
Rachel had been staying in Palestinian homes threatened=
with illegal demolition, and today Rachel was standing with other non-viol=
ent international activists in front of a home scheduled for illegal demoli=
tion. According to witnesses, Rachel was run over twice by the Israeli mili=
tary bulldozer in its process of demolishing the Palestinian home. Witnesse=
s say that Rachel was clearly visible to the bulldozer driver, and was doin=
g nothing to provoke an attack. (15 March 2003)
The photos below clearly show that Rachel was well marked=
, had a megaphone, and posed no threat to the bulldozer driver.

Rachel in Najjar hostpital, Rafah, Occupied Gaza. H=
a'aretz newspaper reported that Dr. Ali Musa, a doctor at Al-Najjar, stated=
that the cause of death was "skull and chest fractures". (Mohammad Al-Mogh=
air)=20
A later report from ISM Media Coordinator Michael Shaikh =
in Beit Sahour offered more details about the events:=20
The confrontation between the ISM and the Israeli Army =
had been under way for two hours when Rachel was run over. Rachel and the o=
ther activists had clearly identified themselves as unarmed international p=
eace activists throughout the confrontation.
The Israeli Army are attempting to dishonour her memory=
by claiming that Rachel was killed accidentally when she ran in front of t=
he bulldozer. Eye-witnesses to the murder insist that this is totally untru=
e. Rachel was sitting in the path of the bulldozer as it advanced towards h=
er. When the bulldozer refused to stop or turn aside she climbed up onto th=
e mound of dirt and rubble being gathered in front of it wearing a fluoresc=
ent jacket to look directly at the driver who kept on advancing. The bulldo=
zer continued to advance so that she was pulled under the pile of dirt and =
rubble. After she had disappeared from view the driver kept advancing until=
the bulldozer was completely on top of her. The driver did not lift the bu=
lldozer blade and so she was crushed beneath it. Then the driver backed off=
and the seven other ISM activists taking part in the action rushed to dig =
out her body. An ambulance rushed her to A-Najar hospital where she died.
=
=20
Colleagues of Rachel comfort each other in Najjar h=
ostpital, Rafah, Occupied Gaza. Ha'aretz newspaper reported that a second a=
ctivist was also injured at the same location. (Mohammad Al-Moghair)=20
"This is a regrettable accident," Israeli Defence Forces =
[sic] spokesman Captain Jacob Dallal was reported as saying in Ha'aretz new=
spaper. "We are dealing with a group of protesters who were acting very irr=
esponsibly, putting everyone in danger."=20
Members of the Israeli army and associated Israeli settle=
r paramilitary units have been responsible for the killing of 2,181 Palesti=
nians and the injuring of another 22,218 between 29 September 2000 and 14 M=
arch 2003.=20
In addition to the killing of Rachel Corrie by the bulldo=
zer driver, Israeli troops have shot and killed several other international=
s in different incidents during the Intifada: German doctor Harald Fischer,=
Italian cameraman Rafaeli Ciriello, and British United Nations worker Iain=
Hook.=20
