Rachel Corrie Died for Her Parents’ Sins

Her parents' "sins" related here all happened after their daughter's death and were reactions to it. But don't let anything stand in the way of repeating the same stupid pancake jokes another dozen times.

Quote: "What parents encourage their daughter to go into a war zone to stand before bulldozers that are trying to protect innocent people by destroying tunnels and buildings used to transfer munitions for suicide bombers? What parents encourage their child to join an anarchist organization that thrives on placing the naïve in harm’s way while lusting after the inevitable and ensuing propaganda benefit from their death and injury? Did the Corries hate Jews more than they loved their child?"

I think you have a pancake for a brain.

Those are questions. Speculation. Not facts.

We certainly don't know that the Corries "encouraged" Rachel to stand in front of a bulldozer. We don't know that they "lusted" after "the propaganda benefits" of their daughter's death when she left for the Middle East.

There's something pretty damn stupid and offensive about such speculations. Do you really expect they'd simply join in all the moronic pancake jokes about their dead daughter?

Without agreeing with their actions and beliefs, I don't attack or revile them for natural human reactions to grief.

I suppose the two Corrie parents would be thrilled if their two nieces also get themselves killed in a stupid way. I wish there was some sort of law to try those two morons for sending their daughter to a place where she the chances of getting killed were very high.

"Did the Corries hate Jews more than they loved their child?"

Great Golda Meir reference.
