UN to Caterpillar: Stop selling bulldozers to Israel
Last Updated Wed, 16 Jun 2004 12:39:10
GENEVA - A U.S.-based company has been warned by a United Nations expert not to sell bulldozers to Israel because of the way the Israeli army is using them.
Bulldozer maker may be accomplice in human rights violations
Jean Ziegler, the UN's special expert on the right to food, sent a letter to Caterpillar Inc. saying that the company could be considered an accomplice in human rights violations.
The letter to Caterpillar chief executive James Owen expressed Ziegler's concerns "about the actions of the Israeli occupation forces in Rafah and in other locations in Gaza and the West Bank."
A resolution passed this year by the UN Human Rights Commission extends responsibility to protect rights to "non-state actors."
Ziegler's letter, dated May 28, said the Israelis are "using armoured bulldozers supplied by your company to destroy agricultural farms, greenhouses, ancient olive groves and agricultural fields planted with crops."
There's been no comment from Caterpillar headquarters in Peoria, Ill.
The letter also says Caterpillar bulldozers have been used to destroy "numerous Palestinian homes and sometimes human lives, including that of the American peace activist Rachel Corrie."
Corrie, 23, was crushed to death in March 2003. She was trying to stop an Israeli army bulldozer from destroying Palestinian homes in a Gaza Strip refugee camp.

Why doesn't the UN send the same warnings to the companies which produce the explosive components which are used to blow up Israeli buses and nightclubs?
Hey, how bout we use some of those caterpillars to knock down the UN building? Who's with me?

Just for the record, since israel started getting tough, how many suicide bombings have hit israel? Maybe 1 or 2... Israel should keep killing Hamas leaders, keep knocking down terrorist's buildings and keep building that wall.
And the United States should kick the UN the **** out of New York, they should go find somewhere else to meet, maybe paris.

Actually when Israel started to escalate the conflict (getting "tough") in 2002, the suicide bombs also escalated significantly.
As to the issue of producers of products and their liability. Well, as long as their isn't imposed any US and/or international sanctions on Israel, I suppose it's an issue of morality of the company and up to the consumers to put pressure on it. By the way, after GW1 their was a big fuss about german companies that had delivered chemicals or components for it to Iraq.

BULL****!!! From October 2000-March 2002 Israel only blocked 30% of the terror attacks, since March 2002 the number has almost got up to 90% in the West Bank and 98% (a bit more) in Gaza strip, and in addition they suffer from shortage in ammo and weapons and the Hamas is in a very bad situation.
In 2002 we had 100% more terror attacks then in 2003 and the same goes for the number of dead and injured Israeli civilians.
Don't tell **** to people.

Not true.....listen Israel went back in the first time AFTER the Passover massacre where almost 30 man women and children were slaughtered as they were about to sit down for the Passover meal by a homcide/sucide bomber and this was also after for weeks before numerous homicide bombings against Israelis, also let me remind you that before this time, the homicide bombings and shootings attacks against Israelis were daily and for sure weekly (and sometimes twice a day) now then Israel went in and it immediately dropped and then Israel pulled out and guess what, yep the homicide bombings went up again and it was only after we went in the second time and stayed and till now we have seen a HUGE drop in homicide bombings and shooting attacks
The fact is that it’s quite clear that ONLY because of our actions have we seen huge results in the huge drop of the number of attacks against us.
It is working big time!!! And I know it goes against your conviction of how militarily we can do this, but the fact is that we are and I say we have no choice in resorting to this, but nonetheless we have been able to achieve major success for our security.
I could go on but I saw a great article in the Jerusalem post the other day so I figured now’s a good time to share it.
Keep winning
Zakariya Zubeidi, the Aksa Martyrs Brigades chieftain in Jenin, yesterday offered to order a halt to attacks on Israel in exchange for an end to Israeli incursions into that city and a withdrawal from surrounding settlements. This is excellent news. The government should meet it by stepping up its military offensive in Jenin and throughout the territories.
Zubeidi's offer is not an olive branch. It is not evidence of pragmatism, moderation, or good will. It is an admission of impending defeat. The Martyrs Brigades and other terrorist Palestinian factions have been devastated by repeated IDF/Shin Bet raids on their rank-and-file, and there are now over 6,000 Palestinians in Israeli custody, three times as many as at the height of Operation Defensive Shield in 2002. Successive generations of terrorist leadership have either been killed by the IDF or forced into hiding for fear of their lives, thereby disrupting planning and operational capabilities. Their ability to reach Israeli targets has been dramatically curtailed by the construction of the security fence. The killing of Hamas leaders Ahmed Yassin and Abdel Aziz Rantisi did not, in fact, lead to the threatened rivers of blood, but to the longest (relative) peace Israel has known in nearly four years. If the intifada seems over, as some people now dare to whisper, it is because the IDF is winning.
It wasn't supposed to be thus. We have spent the last several years listening to sanctimonious lectures about how (1) there is no military solution to the conflict; (2) any "escalation" on Israel's part leads to a commensurate Palestinian escalation; (3) "walls never solved anything;" and, finally, (4) what the Palestinians need is hope, not fear.
All this turns out to be demonstrably false. Israeli military escalation has led, unfailingly, to Palestinian de-escalation. Israeli pressure has been followed, unfailingly, by Palestinian reasonableness. The security fence is working as planned everywhere it has been erected. Israeli concessions – giving the Palestinians hope – has merely created openings for violence.
More broadly, the longer Israel prevents the Palestinians from scoring a tactical success, the more Palestinians despair of scoring one. The more they despair, the less they try. The less they try, the easier it is to interdict. And so on. It's what economists call a virtuous cycle.
Winning, of course, is not the same as won. The danger now is that the appearance of success will lead to a relaxation of effort, possibly encouraged by international pressure to show good will in the face of gestures like Zubeidi's. This would be snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. The main thing now is both to maintain the operational tempo and broaden the operational scope. Why, for instance, does Arafat continue to get a pass from Israel and the West when Zubeidi himself tells Israel Radio that "if Ramallah decides that we should stop, we will stop."
It cannot be repeated enough that Yasser Arafat continues to be the primary terror master in this region and must be seen, and treated, accordingly.
We have written many times before that the key to any future negotiation with the Palestinian leadership is to expose them, as fully as possible, to the consequences of their conceits. If this intifada has seemed almost interminable, it is because Israel failed to do this early on, choosing instead to escalate gradually. As it is, the results have been worse for the Palestinians than they have for us. But it's never too late to rectify mistakes.
It is encouraging that the IDF's more aggressive posture coincides with the cabinet's momentous decision to remove settlements in Gaza. The great danger of disengagement is not the loss of territory, which can sometimes be an asset and sometimes a liability, but the loss of credibility. As we come closer to the moment of pulling up stakes, it will be necessary to take the anti-terror campaign to a new level of intensity. No Palestinian living in a future Palestinian state should be in any doubt as to Israel's will and ability to defend itself and its citizens against opportunistic aggression. It should go without saying that that is something no Israeli ought to be in doubt of, either
Shalom :D

As I recall it, the mentioned suicide bombing hit a passover meal primarily attended by elderly people. I suspect that the fragility of the victim's caused an above average number of the wounded to die.
But at that time the ball was already rolling.
As to the Israeli actions to stop the suicide bombs, if that indeed was the purpose, I still see much of it as counter-productive.

You know, there were some like her in Baghdad protecting Saddam.
I wonder while people always so eager to sacrifice themselves for some old bastard like Arafat, Saddam or Hitler, but then reluctent to sit on the ordinary city bus, which Israeli children take to school...
the one thing for certain, those who would play "shields" for Mussolini and Hitler 60 years ago were treated pretty bad by allied armies (and even much worse by the local liberated population).
I can't even start to imagine what the local Bahdad residents would do to someone who "guarded" Saddam from cruise missles, especially those Iraqis whose relatives perished during Saddam's purges... we saw what they did to the statue, what would they do to those senile 'protectors' remains a mistery.... probably burn them!

Correction. A civilian facility that is turned into terrorist military headquarters or barracks, canot be called a civilian facility anymore.
If we take a regular civilian home and use it for military as well as terrorist
purpose, we make it a target for military strike.
In other words, military facility is any "civilian" facility that provides cover, shelter and haven for terrorists, where plans of terrorists attacks are made and where weapons are stored and used against true civilian target like buses.
For example, if Hitler and his thugs sat, lived and operated from the vicinity of civilian building in berlin, that building is no longer a "civilian" facility.
So goes for Palestinian and any other homes, that snipers, terrorists chose as platforms and bases for their attacks.
It is sad that such basic facts of war I have to explain to grown up man.
If you would take you home, and make a terrorist base out of it (regardless whether your family still occupies its perimeter), your home would become a terrorist facility - military building designated for destruction.
The whole responsibility of destroying such facility lies with people who chose it to be their military facility. They should not use (accoding to international law) civilian home as place for planning and making terrorist operations. This is forbidden under Geneva Convention. Thus terrorists who turned civilian homes into military barracks should be tried for war crimes, not the liberating army that destroys them and cleans area from terrorist infrastructure.

As I recall it, the mentioned suicide bombing hit a passover meal primarily attended by elderly people. I suspect that the fragility of the victim's caused an above average number of the wounded to die. :cantbeli: wow and your absurdity knows no ends :roll:
Listen, almost 30 civilians were purposely targeted and blown up in pieces and countless more were injured, whether they were old or not, the fact is that the homicide bomber’s intention was to kill as much innocents as he could and your claims that the death toll was greater because they were older has no bearing at all on what happened there and its shameful that you can even attempt to rationalize this in the way that you have.
But at that time the ball was already rolling. no by that time, Israel had not gone back in on mass like it did AFTER that attack…..again it was AFTER that attack, that we went in with much greater force.
As to the Israeli actions to stop the suicide bombs, if that indeed was the purpose, I still see much of it as counter-productive. Yes the SOLE purpose was to stop what WAS constant homcide bombings and constant shooting attacks that was mostly targeted at our civilians, and guess what? our actions have had HUGE effects in DRAMATICLY reducing the amount of attacks against us!!
You can harp how its counter productive all you want (which is actually a fallacious argument for the simple fact that no matter what we do or don’t do, they were lining up homicide bombers to attacks us anyways), but the reality is that before we went in, we were attacked daily (sometimes even twice or three times a day) and now its once a month or even once in longer periods then that…….that’s clear results on how effective we have been and its ONLY because of the IDF and shin bet actions (and the security anti terror fence) that we have had much more security.
We have PROVEN that our actions are effective contrary to a lot of you that said we cant be.

First things first...
Perhaps the difference is that the Israeli children, have an army to guard them...
1. Yes, as most other children in the world.
Yes American, British, Belgium and French children have an army that protects them.
So what? What's you point? You should not ride on the bus with them? Or you just simply not recognizing their right to live?
But I still did not get the answer why people refuse to sit on the ordniary bus with them as Israeli kids go to school.
They love to sit in Arafat's compound while this old terrorists sign bank checks for terrorists organizations, but they refuse to sit on the Israeli bus in Jerusalem.
2. Army or no army, but Israeli children are targeted for intentional murder by Palestinian terrorists. There are no military targets in the bus that rides 15 kids to school.
This is what we call a Crime against Humanity - intentional/deliberate attackt where civilians are the main target.
Since, Palestinians do this systematically, we can call it slow paced genocide.
While Germans usually picked up random 15 civilian Jews and executed them with machine guns.
Palestinians pick up random 15 Jews and slaughter them on the city bus, in cafe or disco club.
while palestinian children don't. [have an army]
1. Why the absence of Palestinian army has to do with refusal of some Jew-haters to sit on the bus with Jewish children.
2. Palestinian children do have an army to protect them.
a) An Israeli army is a regular army, and as such it does its outmost to protect those innocent civilians who try to avoid armed confrontation.
b) there were many examples, when an Israeli army protected Palestinian children. In fact, when Palestinian children attacked by Jewish extremists in West Bank, who do you think they running to? Palestinian terrorist? NO!
They usually run to Israeli blockpost, where they get both protection and medical asistance if they would be attack by Jewish terrorists in the middle of the road.
c) Palestinian children receive also a treatment from Jewish doctors and Israeli hospitals, sometimes they even transfered there by military medical helicopters, so they DO receive protection of the army.
d) I personally know the case, where Israeli army protected Palestinian children from domestic abuse (Palestinian terrorist was beating and abusing his nephew, so Israeli army went to his home and arrested him on the charges of domestic abuse).
2. However, it is true that Palestinian children don't have a Palestinian army.
Because Palestinians don't have an army as we know it, an army with codes of war and honor policy. They have simple gangs of thugs instead of an army.
So it is true, Palestinian children don't receive a protection from Palestinian militia. In fact, Palestinian militants indanger Palestinian youth, they abuse it and use it as cover and shield for their operations.
This cause outcry of complain from Palestinian Arab population that calls on terrorists to "stop indangering our youth!"
So the basic truth is - Palestinian children are hijacked by Palestinian terrorists and militants, and children as well as civilian population needs to be liberated by an army of honor from the terrorists rule that currently exists in Palestinian cities.

I personally tired to explain to everyone about Israel.
If they are so unbiased, then why don't they just grab a book or two and read about the country. It's not hard.
I did.
There are plenty of good historical material in the bookstore.
Like Howard Sachar "History of Israel".
This American professor who has Ph. D. in Middle East studies wrote like more than 1000 pages about Israeli history. Read him.
I mean, it's just frustrating that while there are numerous injusticies, abuses, crimes, and genocides are going on in the world, people prefer to focus on tiny Jewish state and bash it...
Why we don't talk about Sudan?
Where are so many posts on this forum about Algeria, Somalia, Zimbabwe?
What about civilians deaths in Kashmir? There are a lot of more deaths there. What about Tibet?
Why noone writes about European troops failing to stop Boasnian massacres only few years ago?
It's always about Jews...

The counterfeit human rights industry
By Amnon Rubinstein
Shortly before the terror attack in Madrid there was an international conference of victims of terrorism. Nobel Peace Laureate David Trimble, head of the Unionist Party in Ulster, Northern Ireland, who spoke at the conference, said: "One of the great curses of this world is the human rights industry. They justify terrorist acts and end up being complicit in the murder of innocent victims."
The conference ended with a call on human rights groups "to defend the rights of the victims of terror, without blurring the distinction between the murderer and their victim." Human Rights Watch, the human rights group, issued a condemnation of that.
The concept of human rights has gone through a revolution, apparent in three aspects: the recognition that formal democratic procedures are not enough to protect human rights; the principle that no regime can deny any person "natural" rights, meaning those granted to them by virtue of being human (or in Judaism, by virtue of being in God's image); and the perception that civil rights are not the domestic considerations of a state but can be supervised by international law, and their violation gives other states the right to intervene in a state's affairs. Jews have a special interest in that aspect, since they are the main victims of the precept that civil rights are domestic matters for countries. It is no accident that Jews were key activists in formulating the language of treaties about human rights.
Nowadays, however, we can see two contradictory phenomena. One is supremely expressed in genuine defense of human rights by European institutions. The other is nothing but a broad industry, seemingly of human rights, resulting in a counterfeit product. That is the difference between the court in Strasbourg, peopled by professional justices from democratic states, and the United Nations Human Rights Commission in Geneva, headed by a representative of Libya, and member countries that belong on the bench of those accused of violating human rights.
There's also a huge ideological gulf between the original and the forgery. Human rights laws set grades of rights and the very top level is the right to life and personal safety. In other words, the law recognizes the relativity of rights: The right to life is more important, for example, than the right to privacy. The law is not the same for a state that murders its citizens, as Sudan did for nearly 20 years, and a state that suspends jury trials during periods of emergency to fight terrorism, as England did in Northern Ireland.
The human rights industry is made up of various organizations, academics, and media people who do the exact opposite: all rights are equal. Censorship is the equivalent of genocide. Detention without trial in Guantanamo is the equivalent of murderous terror.
While the original concept of human rights graduated rights according to their level of importance, there is no relativity in the approach taken by those who violate those rights. All the criminals should be judged according to the same criteria. On the other hand, if a Western country were to perpetrate only one-hundredth of the crimes conducted by Saudi Arabia against its residents, there would be an enormous outcry from Geneva to Berkeley. But despite the permanent protests by the human rights groups, few know how many people are executed in Saudi Arabia (in 1999 alone there were 301). But in Oslo, human rights devotees demonstrate against Israel. Nobody protests against the fence that Saudi Arabia is building on its border with Yemen - against international agreements and harming thousands of shepherds whose flocks graze on the lands were the fence is going up, but there is no organization that does not protest against Israel. That said, the fence route is indeed unjustified and causes injustice.
Thus the tables have been turned. What was relative in the original has become absolute in the counterfeiting industry and what was absolute has become conditional on political correctness.

People are beautiful, the world stinks
Dennis Prager (archive)
If you love goodness and hate evil, this is a tough time to stay sane.
Israel has killed Abdel Aziz Rantisi, the Hamas terror leader, and almost every nation in the world and the nations' theoretical embodiment, the United Nations, have condemned Israel for doing so.
World leaders and the world organization have said almost nothing about Communist China's ongoing destruction of one of the world's oldest civilizations, Tibet. World leaders have said almost nothing about the Arab enslavement and genocide of non-Arab blacks in Sudan. But they convene world conferences to label Israel, one of the most humane and decent democracies on earth, a pariah.
In order to retain my sanity, I ask the reader's indulgence as I use this column to express personal thoughts.
I have contempt for "the world." I cherish and admire countless individuals, but I have contempt for "the world" and "world opinion." "The world" has never cared about evils inflicted on human beings. The Communist genocides meant nothing to humanity. The Holocaust meant nothing. With almost no exception, the mass atrocities since World War II have likewise absorbed humanity less than the Olympics or the Miss World Contest.
I have contempt for the United Nations. It is one of the great obstacles to goodness and decency on this planet. Its moral record -- outside of a few specialized agencies such as the World Health Organization -- is almost entirely supportive of evil and condemnatory of good. It is dominated by the most morally backward governments in the world -- those from the Arab and Muslim worlds, the Communists during their heyday and African despots. It appointed Libya, a despotic, primitive state, to head its Human Rights Commission, whose members include China, Saudi Arabia and Sudan. Neither the United States nor Israel sits on the Commission.
I regard the European Union with similar revulsion. With little opposition, Europe murdered nearly every Jewish man, woman and child in its midst, and a half-century later provides cover for those in the Middle East who seek to do to the Middle East's Jews exactly what the Nazis did to the European Jews. For the European Union to condemn Israel's killing of a Hamas leader, when Hamas's avowed aim is another Jewish genocide, is so loathsome as to board the incredible. For Germany and France (who, unlike America, have almost never shed blood for the liberty of others) to do everything they can to undermine America's attempt to liberate Iraq is similarly repugnant.
As for the international news media and journalists, I regard most of them as aides to evil.
This is not new. The 1932 Pulitzer Prize, American journalism's highest award, was given to Walter Duranty of the New York Times for reporting from the Soviet Union. In his reports, Duranty repeatedly denied Stalin's forced starvation of Ukrainians that led to the murder of more than 6 million of them. The same "newspaper of record" deliberately toned down reporting on the Nazi annihilation of Jews 10 years later so as not to appear "too Jewish."
The Soviet decimation of Afghanistan was so little reported in the international media -- especially radio and television -- that when I talked about its scope and horror on my radio show in the 1980s, listeners kept wondering if I was telling the truth -- they had never heard anything about it.
In the last years of the Saddam Hussein regime, according to John Burns of the New York Times, major news reporters refused to write stories about Iraqi mass murder and atrocities lest the Saddam regime remove their press credentials. For most journalists, and their newspapers and television stations, it was better to lie for Saddam and have a bureau in Baghdad than to tell the truth but have no Baghdad bureau.
And not one international news organization calls Hamas or any of the other Palestinian terror organizations "terrorists."
I love learning and revere the title of "professor," but with few exceptions, universities, too, merit contempt. The vast majority of professors who take positions on social issues are moral fools. They teach millions of students that America and Israel are villains and that the enemies of those decent societies are merely misunderstood victims who are often justified in their hatred. And they loathe the American Judeo-Christian value system that has made the United States the world's land of opportunity and beacon of liberty.
In sum, I feel that I am living in a world that is morally sick. Good is called bad, and bad is called "militant," "victimized," "misunderstood" and "the product of hopelessness," but rarely bad. Only those who fight the bad are called bad.
I am kept sane by the knowledge that there are hundreds of millions of individuals who can still tell the difference between good and evil; by the knowledge that there was never a time that humanity was particularly decent; and by a strong belief that a good God governs the universe even though He allows evil many triumphs. And I believe this God will judge Osama bin Laden and Jacques Chirac appropriately.

You know, there were some like her in Baghdad protecting Saddam.
Have a read of this:
http://www.countercurrents.org/pa-guttman120503.htm
"Craig Corrie sent just one e-mail to his daughter during the seven weeks she spent in Rafah. She addressed most of her letters to her mother, Cindy, and Craig read them with concern. When he was a soldier serving in Vietnam, he would send his loved ones letters with few details and mostly laconic, knowing that too much of a detailed description of the war and the dangers would only increase the worry at home. At home in North Carolina when he read his daughter's letters, he knew she too was concealing a lot of the dangers. "I knew she didn't write long letters in order not to make it hard for us," he says, "it was hard for me to write back." Eventually, he sent her a brief letter a week before she was killed - "I find writing to you hard, but not thinking about you impossible," he wrote in an e-mail to his daughter, "I am afraid for you, and I think I have reason to be. But I'm also proud of you - very proud." Rachel wrote back the next day. It was the last e-mail she sent before she was struck and killed by a blow from an IDF bulldozer in Rafah on March 16."
Rachel Corrie was a far, far braver woman than you could ever be a man, RavenW.
She had the courage of her convictions and she literally stood up in front of something she thought was wrong.
You are lucky RavenW... without women like Rachel Corrie... sure the whole world would most likely be like your life.
Nothing to protest about, nothing to care about, and nothing to give a **** about unless you were told how to behave by your honorable masters.
We are lucky that women like Rachel Corrie were brought up here in America.

I have bad nightmares about tanks and bulldozers outside our house and you and me inside. Sometimes the adrenaline acts as an anesthetic for weeks and then in the evening or at night it just hits me again - a little bit of the reality of the situation. I am really scared for the people here
Just want to write to my mom and tell her that I'm witnessing this chronic, insidious genocide and I'm really scared, and questioning my fundamental belief in the goodness of human nature. This has to stop. I think it is a good idea for us all to drop everything and devote our lives to making this stop. I don't think it's an extremist thing to do anymore."

I think it was a German Rabbi who survived Holocaust that once said: "Germans will never forget Jews for Auswitz"...

There were enough Europeans, my friend who were not "pigs" in the 1940s, (nor, believe it or not, in the 1930s), who recognised what was happening.
I suggest that you take that brush, which you tar the European people with, and put it out on your porch and let it dry.
I also suggest that you do some more reading on European history during the 1930s and 1940s. It might just educate you.

No.
Have a read again before you keep up the litany of ignorance:
http://www.dissidentvoice.org/Mar04/Corrie0302.htm
"As we approach March 16th, residents and citizens of the United States should ask themselves how it is that an unarmed United States citizen can be killed with impunity by a soldier from an allied nation receiving massive United States aid, using a product manufactured in the United States by a United States corporation and paid for with United States tax dollars."

and I did not say that all Eruopeans were pigs. That would be flatly wrong.
Especially since I am European (originally) myself.
And by the way, all my family still in Europe, where I came from myself, lives there.
If you think that my uncle, my aunt, my grandmother, my grandpa or my cousins are Jews, you are very wrong. I come from Christian family of Europeans.
So don't accuse me of something I did not say.
I suggest that you take that brush, which you tar the European people with, and put it out on your porch and let it dry.

But on every good European that acted during Holocaust, there were 10 Europeans... maybe 50 that did NOTHING.

1. If saying that "Europeans acted like pigs during Holocaust (1940s)", then I am guilty of racism. That's settles it.
Even though being European both by origin, blood and family faith makes me laugh how you and other evil-doers always twist between the side of good and evil.
2. If you think that Rachel Corrie was a good person, then you are deserve her destiny.
She is an evil doer as much as whole bunch of porgomers from Poland that went to Palestine to "help Arab brothers" in 1948.
I personally think anyone who shileds evil from a justified punishments is an evil itself.
Thus, Rachel Corrie, who not only spread false and evil lies and propaganda, but actively participated in such terrorist-sympatiser organization as "Solidarity with Palestine" deserves her destiny.
For me she is no different from KKK, Nazi Club or any other racist organization that supports Israel-haters.
Whether, she was a stupid girl, that's a totally different question.
BUT one thing for sure, she was an evil person. The world is better without her.
I hope soon she will be joined by her sweet buddies - Arafat and Osama bin Laden.

She was an idiot because she thought that a 5 meters tall bulldozer can see her from a distance of 10 meters. She was an idiot because she didn't check what is realy in the house that she was protecting. She was an idiot because she didn't protect the civilians but incited them into violence. She was an idiot because standing infront of 50 tons of steel can not be a smart thing.
P.S. RavenW is right, Europeans didn't care about what was happening to the Jews, a very small minority (few thousands out of hundreds of millions) did something to help the Jews but the rest just thought "finaly they get what they deserve those filthy Jews".

A U.S.-based company has been warned by a United Nations expert not to sell bulldozers to Israel because of the way the Israeli army is using them.
:lol:
Israel has the ability to develop and build its own MBT's, its own aircrafts and even its own satellites and satellite launchers.
Do they really think we will have a problem developing an Israeli made Caterpillar bulldozer?!

James Miller's documentary was shown on TV recently, they were very fair on israel during the whole programme despite what happened. The film they made of the palestinians potrayed them as a mentally ill society worshiping death, which they even did with the death of james miller.
James Miller and a his crew wanted to get out an area while it was quiet, they didn't want to get shot so they decided (perhaps foolishly) to go up to the apc HOLDING UP A WHITE FLAG to tell them they were going to leave, that was when he was shot. It wasn't a case of him sneaking around trying to get a better shot, they had been in plain view of that APC for ages. If they honestly thought they were palestinians which an rpg they would have shot at them hours before.

As I recall it, the mentioned suicide bombing hit a passover meal primarily attended by elderly people. I suspect that the fragility of the victim's caused an above average number of the wounded to die. :cantbeli: wow and your absurdity knows no ends :roll:
Listen, almost 30 civilians were purposely targeted and blown up in pieces and countless more were injured, whether they were old or not, the fact is that the homicide bomber’s intention was to kill as much innocents as he could and your claims that the death toll was greater because they were older has no bearing at all on what happened there and its shameful that you can even attempt to rationalize this in the way that you have.
I have to agree 110% with IDFM203, innocent life is precious! I don't care if a few of these old guys only had a few more weeks to live they still would have died from natural causes given the chance and to be taken from this Earth by some selfish a-hole terrorist just burns me up.
Rather than say they were old and would have died anyway, why not look at these guys as someones Grandmother or Grandfather and think about the kids and grandkids, what affect this would have had on them! :cantbeli:

I hope what happened was an tradgic accident.
P.S. RavenW is right, Europeans didn't care about what was happening to the Jews, a very small minority (few thousands out of hundreds of millions) did something to help the Jews but the rest just thought "finaly they get what they deserve those filthy Jews".
Unfortunatrely you don't care even now and you keep inciting against Jews, and you still have double standard, and you still use stereotypes and you still support who that work against Jews, that's just sick.
My late grandmother was an anti-semite alright. Every now and then while we where discussing politics or watching TV, she'd say something that would kill the conversation completely, and we'd look at her with disbelief. Both sides of my family was active in the resistance movement, hiding jews, arranging their escape, my grandfather was imprisoned and his brother deported to a KZ camp, so we were always shocked every time my grandmother revieled her ignorance and hatefullness(god bless her soul).
Calling all European anti-semites, is just as f****** stupid as if I seriously thought you were speaking on the behalf on the majority in Isreal. You can close your eyes and believe we hate you and your religion and dismiss any criticism as being anti-semetic.
I once saw a documentary about an American/Jewish old married couple visiting Denmark, because "we" had done so much for the jews durring the war. Apparently the Danish efforts have reached mythical hights. It's clearly overrated, but it's still something to be proud of. Yesterday I went to see Daniel Libeskinds newly opened Jewish museum in Copenhagen. I felt so inspired that I went and bought a new book of one of my favourite authors, Martin Armis. One of my favourits is the very controversial: Time's Arrow, or The Nature of the Offense.
Things are never black and white and I don't sit around hating jews all day.
a)I have a friend that was on that case . Trust me I know a little better then you how it's happend .
b)I brought the picture as a demostration of foolish act .
which incident are you talking about earlier on or when he was shot?
The guys in the APC were israeli arabs.
They could have cut the documentary in an incriminating way, but then what would be the point? If you get to see the documentary you'll see what I mean.
If you assume this is an anti-israeli film crew then you're wrong.

Here I'm just straightening out the facts from the previous post.
I suspect that the fragility of the victim's caused an above average number of the wounded to die.
This is just an afterthought. I remember that the death toll climbed long after the attack, contrary to most other such attacks. I'm not saying that it makes the death of these people more "okay" than if they had been young.

yes I have seen the footage I take it you were to ignorant to notice the torch (flashlight) lighting it up? So it would of been easily visible, night vision or no night vision.
Yes they acted foolishely (there were 3 of them, funny how they didn't shoot all the "attackers").
The point I'm trying to make is that John Miller wasn't killed trying to get footage, he was killed when they wanted to get out of there, after waiting for hours, the was no shooting when they came out (why would they go out when troops were exchanging fire?).
Also from the footage the bit Javehn is talking about where his friend almost shot them, that was when they were filming the kids throwing rocks when all of a sudden APCs and/or tanks turned up. James Miller and his crew were already there before the tanks showed up, yes it was dangerous, but you can't call them stupid for that, they were filming kids afterall.

I brought this up , Moledet . I wasn't talking about his death (as I understood it was very fishy , but i will not get into it) , i was talking about this picture of him .
I brought this up , as a connection to the fact that people die from their acts of stupidity .
Here is a perfect example of how people can be stupid sometimes . His crue is wearing helmets , they are in operational column , they are getting down , every one have his camera west that can be seen as regular west , and on top one has a camera on his sholder , and it's not that hard to mistake it for ATGM . Soldiers are not magicians , they can't guess that he is really holding a camera . On this case , nothing happend . It happend later .
Anyway, the point is that there is a Audio tape of IDF radio talk on that Correy accident (it was on Israeli program "Fact" ) . The one who saw that the driver hit Correy was not even the driver , but a surveilance unit , and it forwarded the news to the D9 driver after some time . He was "surprised" to say the list .

This is just an afterthought. I remember that the death toll climbed long after the attack, contrary to most other such attacks. Actually that’s also false, for there are plenty of other attacks, where a lot of the brutally injured have died much later from their wounds.
Your afterthoughts was despicable and shameful and I have to admit it does lead me to question if you are just a fanatic extremist lefty which I had always thought, or perhaps Deuterium was right about you.
As for this whole Rachel corrie thing, well I always find it interesting when I see here extremist ideologues taking up her cause and defending what she was doing there, though when a lot worse happens to us, meaning when lives are slaughtered by homicide bombers (which I would think lives lost is a lot worse then mere stones and bricks bieng destroyed), which is an act that is a lot worse then the houses that she goes to protect, you rarely see any of them comment or put their lives on the line there, or like RavenW says actually ride Israeli buses, but anyways my real point of this post is what I find is the despicable manner that her ideologues throw in her American citizenship, when in reality she renounced her nation so publicly and did so in a foreign land, to me that’s treason. Now I am not commenting on whether she deserved to die or not and I am not saying that her burning an American flag on foreign soil means she deserved to die, all I am saying that I find it appalling that her ideologues and supporters would rush to use her American origin, when she in reality spit at the nation of her origin and did so on foreign soil, an act much worse then simply doing it in the U.S.
P.S. To Geezah, well I was looking for agreement with me 120 percent and not 110, so I guess we can truly never see eye to eye ;)
Anyways just kidding around, good post and nice effort by you, even if this was an obvious one to take.

This is from Wikipedia; don't think they have an agenda. The article is at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachel_Corrie the pictures there are the same ones posted earleir this thread, they indicate that the photos were taken before the incident that killed her. Incidentally, American friends of mine solicited the ISM to have members ride on random buses in Israel. They never received a response.
Fatal incident in Rafah
Corrie hours before incident.On March 16, 2003, Corrie was one of a group of seven ISM activists (consisting of three British and four Americans) who were attempting to disrupt IDF demolition operations where armoured bulldozers were being used to level buildings and vegetation along the security road near the border between the Gaza Strip and Egypt at Rafah. According to the IDF, the demolitions are designed to uncover explosive devices and destroying smuggling tunnels. Palestinians are sometimes killed in demolition operations and they are perceived by some as a form of collective punishment.
On this particular day, two bulldozers, supported by a Nagmachon combat engineering vehicle (CEV), were either ripping up shrubbery (according to Israeli officials) or demolishing homes (according to the protestors). Corrie was wearing a red reflective jacket. Although she had been using a megaphone earlier in the day (see photo, right), she was not using it at the time she was struck. Corrie was standing in front of a house owned by her friend Samir Masri (some reports have his name as Samir Nasrallah), a Palestinian physician.
Earlier that dayFor about two hours, the group had been attempting to disrupt the bulldozers. These attempts consisted of physical obstruction and shouting at the bulldozer operators through a megaphone. Roughly an hour before the fatal incident, the IDF used tear gas and fired warning shots to disperse the ISM protesters, who then later regrouped.
As the bulldozers move slowly forward they push up a pile of soil and rubble in front of them. A standard technique of ISM disruption was for an ISM protester to climb on top of this pile, raising themselves above the bulldozer blade, and making themselves visible to the driver. Sometimes the driver would stop or change direction, and sometimes the protester would dive out of the way.
Eyewitness accounts suggest that Corrie followed this technique, initially sitting or kneeling, and then standing to clamber up on the pile of debris in front of the bulldozer. For a while she was on top of this pile, looking at the driver. At some point, Corrie fell off the pile of rubble, possibly having lost her footing. This may have obscured her from sight of the driver. Corrie may have tried to scrabble out of the way at this point, but if she did so she was unsuccessful.
Corrie immediately after incidentThe driver continued forwards. The blade of the bulldozer passed over Corrie's body (the tracks of the bulldozer did not) and the bulldozer stopped. The bulldozer then reversed clear of Corrie's body, causing the blade to pass over her a second time. Corrie suffered massive injuries. She may have been injured by contact with the blade of the bulldozer. She may also have been injured by the debris. In particular, the Israeli report claims that a concrete slab in the debris struck her head and upper torso and was the primary cause of her death.
The bulldozers and CEV withdrew, and Corrie was rushed by a Red Crescent ambulance to the local Al-Najar hospital where she died of suffocation due to her injuries (some reports have her dying in the ambulance). She became the first ISM volunteer to die in the conflict in over two years of ISM activities in the Palestinian territories, including many other attempts to obstruct Israeli operations.
Reporting errors
A photo taken on the day by an ISM member and published by the Associated Press was mistakenly titled. This gave the impression that it was taken immediately prior to the incident, whereas in fact it was taken between one and four hours earlier.
Did the driver see Corrie?
The bulldozers had been in the area for two hours, and were certainly aware of the protesters and their activities. What is less clear is whether the bulldozer operator saw Corrie immediately prior to killing her.
Witness statements by fellow ISM protesters indicate that Corrie would have been clearly visible to the driver while she was standing on top of the pile of rubble in front of the driver. She was wearing a red reflective jacket at this time.
According to those who have been permitted to read it, the unpublished IDF report and the unpublished report by a branch of the Israeli judiciary both state that the driver never saw or heard Corrie. It is not clear what timeframe these statement might refer to.
IDF armoured bulldozers have limited visibility.A further complication is that, according to regulations, the bulldozer driver should have been directed in part by other IDF soldiers at the scene. Caterpillar D9s have a restricted field of vision, limited by the small armored windows, with a number of blind spots. In theory the other soldiers should have covered these spots.
The IDF commander of Gaza Strip, in an interview to Israeli Channel 2 actualia research broadcast Uvda with Ilana Dayan told that soldiers were bound to stay in their armoured vehicles and could not get out to direct the bulldozer or to arrest the protesters due to the threat of Palestinian snipers. He also added that Corrie was facing the bulldozer alone, while the rest of her friends were away, probably forcing the APC to handle them instead of watching over the bulldozer.
Was Corrie "run over"?
The blade of the bulldozer passed over Corrie's body (twice), and may have additionally dragged her along the ground, but its tracks did not. If they had done, she would have died sooner, and her body would have been more extensively damaged. Both Israeli reports interpret this as meaning that the bulldozer did not run over Corrie. The ISM interprets this as meaning that the bulldozer "ran over" Corrie.[/url]

I think the issue of Rachel Corrie death should be sorted out by an american court. Then they can decide whether it was negligent homicide, intentional homicide or if the driver just didn't see her and shouldn't have known she was there.
This is just an afterthought. I remember that the death toll climbed long after the attack, contrary to most other such attacks. Actually that’s also false, for there are plenty of other attacks, where a lot of the brutally injured have died much later from their wounds.

Eugenics the Nazis were big on that PT. The Rachel Corrie incedent was a tragedy and I for one believe that the driver of that D9 will carry the regret and guilt of her death until the day he dies, the same way I would if I accidentally run over someone so just think a little before you type.

I think the issue of Rachel Corrie death should be sorted out by an american court. Then they can decide whether it was negligent homicide, intentional homicide or if the driver just didn't see her and shouldn't have known she was there.
So does that mean the next time a Pakistani taxi driver in NY injures or kills a French tourist or Chinese diplomat on Broadway, he's answerable to a court in one of those countries? There is no legal justification for your proposal. You made an earlier statement about the FBI investigating the deaths of Americans overseas. Also not true. Usually your embassy's liasion will review the circumstances, and then determine if further involvement is merited, generally if there is a suspicion of conspiracy or involvement in criminal activity. Obviously terrorism and the deliberate targeting of American overseas has changed the frequency and degree of American invlovement. Khobar Towers comes to mind.
Too many Americans lose sight of the fact that the rights you are guaranteed as US Citizens aren't universally applicable or applied. I have arrested several Americans both in Israel and in cooperative efforts in Europe; the almost automatic response is "I have my rights," thinking they're in New York, Atlanta or on "Law & Order".
As a counter-point, I think too many American Jews who have moved to Israel are also too quick to wave their US Passports when they break the law, and even when they're the victims of terror.
I don't think there was anything admirable about Rachel Corrie. What could have been constructive dedication became self-aggrandizing identification with a cause that she knew little about. She saw a microcosm of something very big, and became holier than thou in one element. The ISM is effectively an offshoot of the PA, more politicized than even the UNWRA. The Friends (Quakers?) who help the Palestinians here at least keep their issues with us in check.

"Actually that’s also false, for there are plenty of other attacks, where a lot of the brutally injured have died much later from their wounds.”
Does that prove my little thesis wrong? Yes it proves your previous contention that its only limited to older people that die later because of their wounds to be false and my post shows you how that’s just simply not true for it’s a fact that throughout the many homicide bombings that our civilians have faced, many that werent at first killed but just injured, be it old, young or middle aged have died later as a result of their injurious and it wasn’t only old people.
So yes after other attacks, the death toll climes on and on as a lot of the victims succumb to their injurious and it wasn’t only limited to this attack on Passover.
Oh and again, the homicide bombers intention was to kill as many innocent civilians as possible, whether who dies was older or younger have no bearing on the horrible intentions and act that was committed and your efforts to rationalize or even trivialize that horrid act in any way is despicable and shameful
“Your afterthoughts was despicable and shameful and I have to admit it does lead me to question if you are just a fanatic extremist lefty which I had always thought, or perhaps Deuterium was right about you.”
I can't follow your bizarre line of reasoning. :cantbeli: I think its pretty clear of what I meant and if you cant follow it then Ill leave you with your supposed “wishful” ignorance on what I am saying, that’s IF you really have no clue as to what I am implying here :roll:

Do you think that I would not demand a simililar investigation into the death of the child "Tanenbaum"? ....
can you point us to a website which talks about this one year old US child named "Tanenbaum"... I would like to read about him.
Some people are real bastards.... It took me a while to find him because when I started to look for name Shmuel there were so many other Shmuels - victims of Palestinian terror, it was hard to continue to search for this child.

A excellent article. Neutral in its approach, hardly a direct case of murder as some are crying a river over.
The most likely occurance, is that she did try and climb to the top of the pile, fell over and was below the drivers line of sight and was hit with the blade.
the IDF used tear gas and fired warning shots to disperse the ISM protesters, who then later regrouped.
Jeez, you think they would take the hint. And there lives were clearly endangered in being in the area where military operations where being carried out.
She did have to learn the hard way though.

... and she also gave a good example to the little children around her.
oh boy... what a role model! :roll:

"On April 25, 15 people, including British citizens Asif Hanif and Omar Khan Sharif, met at an ISM apartment in Rafah, Gaza and then proceeded to the site of Corrie's death, where they placed a flower. Five days later Hanif and Sharif carried out a suicide bombing of the Mike's Place restaurant in Tel Aviv, killing three civilians. "
And these are the people she associated with.
