Rachel Corrie play in Montreal
CBC News ^

Posted on 12/10/2007 12:46:01 PM PST by Astronaut

Follow the link to read about a play making a hero out of Rachel Corrie that is running in Montreal. Corrie was a nitwit, indoctrinated by Israel-hating leftists at Evergreen State College who got flattened by an Israeli military bulldozer. Good riddance to her! Anyone dumb enough not to move out of the way of a slow moving bulldozer shouldn't be using up valuable oxygen. Does the play have a bulldozer come on stage, like the helicopter in Miss Saigon? Because watching a re-enactment of the flattening of the unlamented Rachel Corrie might be worth the price of a ticket.

...Crowds have been thin at the new “Rachel Corrie” play. Likely due to crushing reviews by critics....

Is it wrong to applaud when the dozer goes for broke? How about making a whoopie cushion go off when she gets flattened?

Is it a musical?

Think Oklahoma here.

Oh what a beautiful mourning,
Oh what a beautiful splay,
I’m flatter than a pancake,
And I really like being this way . . . .

The lead actress is exhausted from overwork. Everyone is saying she looks a little run down.

Hello? is this thing on?

For anyone that bothers to read the article....

If you come see the play, it introduces humour among other things

"Oh those wacky protesters! Crazy American kids go halfway around the world to hang out with terrorists and protest Isrealis! Hilarity ensues when they hide behind working bulldozers! Will the zaniness EVER end?" /s

The Bulldozing of Rachel Corrie

There are strange things done in the blazing sun
By tools who toil for causes.
The desert sands have their Arab bands
Who have seen less wins than losses.
The Mid-East blights have seen queer sights;
But the queerest of all, the most gory
Was that day on the tip of the Gaza Strip
I bulldozed Rachel Corrie.

Rachel Corrie came from Isle of Maury,
Where the liberal breeds and grows.
Why she left her gang out west to hang
With the rags, God only knows.
She was never told that the lands of old
Had a Hebrew tale to tell;
And she’d often say in her churlish way,
“Those Jews should burn in Hell!”

On March 16 our ragtime queen
Made herself a human shield.
It was 5 PM and the light was dim
When in her horn she squealed.
“Now stop right there while I prepare
For a sit-in, brave and burly.”
But she was not seen and our ragtime queen
Was a sandy, gritty girlie.

There are strange things done in the blazing sun
By tools who toil for causes.
The desert sands have their Arab bands
Who have seen less wins than losses.
The Mid-East blights have seen queer sights;
But the queerest of all, the most gory
Was that day on the tip of the Gaza Strip
I bulldozed Rachel Corrie.

Need that Voice Over announcer to lend some gravitas...."One Woman. One Bulldozer. Only one will survive. (insert actress' name here) IS Rachel Corrie in "Flattened by Caterpillar; the Rachel Corrie Story".

In an ironic twist, sponsored by Waffle House.

Kind of like the scene in Austin Powers when the security guard gets run over by the steam roller.

This woman was a piece of crap. She put herself in harms way and paid the price. She knew what she was getting herself into.
I wonder if they will make a play about an Israeli family getting blown up by rockets being fired out of Syria?

Flat tops on Couries and flattened out mittens,
Bright metal dozers with blades made for hittin,
Brown paper bags for scooping up brains,
These are a few of my favorite thangs.
