yes, her parents never told her not to play in an active construction site, stand in front of a moving bulldozer, associate with islamic terrorists, burn flags, etc. I suppose hey ignored her as a child. She did seem hungry for attention, so at least she got in the newspapers.
To: IslandJeff
There could be a movie in this: call it “Raging Bull..dozer”.
To: JerseyDvl
I recall seeing the video and she was run over. There was no video of the incident.

The video you linked is a bunch of different clips spliced together.
It does not show the bulldozer running over Corrie, it shows her lying on the ground afterward.

This is bizarre enough, but the fact that there is actually a court that may consider this suit to have merit is really creepy.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit will hear arguments Monday whether there is merit to a lawsuit by the family of Rachel Corrie, the 23-year-old activist from Olympia killed by a bulldozer in the Gaza Strip in 2003.Anyone can see where this farce is headed.

She had some weird mental motivations going on in that bizarre mind of hers.I'm sure her radical left parents had quite a bit to do with that.
To: Enchante
Oh my god. Bulldozers run themselves now do they? This stuff is getting sick.............
To: Screamname
Right from the very start you can claim this claim will collapse.Without ever seeing the inside of a law school, I could defend this case for Caterpillar in two sentences.
(1) The United States Courts courts generally have no jurisdiction over events occurring in locations outside the United States. (Yes, there are exceptions, but they don't apply here.)
(2) Caterpillar violated no U. S. statute in selling its equipment to Israel.

Remember this is the 9th circus court we are talking about here.Which means they will rule for the Corries and the case will go on to the Supreme Court, who will smack down the 9th yet again...my prediction.

To: Enchante
This lawsuit cannot/will not be won by the Corries. The sole purpose of it is exert pressure on Caterpillar via bad publicity. To get Caterpillar to not sell to Israel
Who is their lawyer? Bet it’s an activist lawyer who is being paid little because he is a crusader, he is part of “the cause”

I understand the Caterpillar filed its legal briefs for this case electronically - in the form of flat files.
