She died for people who danced in the streets on 9/11, and would have danced just as hard if she had been in either tower....fool.

Maybe it makes me a bad person, but I could give two shits about these whack-job parents, and the corpse of a moonbat daughter.

You want to stand in front a bulldozer? Fine...you do that. But I will be damned if I shed ONE tear when you get turned into hamburger.

Actions have consequences, and your actions caused this consequence.Welcome to that thing in life called 'Free will'.

I say this as a father, and I just do not have any sympathy for any of the actions that have happened in this case.

Call me heartless I guess..

Just finished watching Eichmann on Youtube. Corrie would’ve felt a kindred spirit with him.

I would feel sympathy if she had just been a naive, peace-and-love hippy who was too clueless to understand what was going on.

But the look of rage and hatred in her eyes as she celebrated burning a makeshift US flag with a group of small Arab children in that series of photographs - well, that showed that she knew exactly what she was doing.

She was a conscious supporter of terrorism, becoming more active and vocal after 9/11 than she had been before.

So I feel zero sympathy for her, or for the parents who raised her in that ideology.

Interestingly the media seems to have Anglicized her last name as Corrie.

I am virtually certain that it was originally spelled Khoury.
We have a number of Middle-Eastern families around here by that last name.

Call me heartless I guess I'm right there with you.

IF Corrie's parents had just sued the IDF, I suppose a case could be made that they were "looking for justice for their dead daughter", or somesuch. I'd still not be sympathetic, but I'd at least understand.

However, they ALSO sued Caterpillar, because the company's pockets are deeper and they don't want negative PR.

So, IMHO, the Corries are ultimately just another Dim sponge, looking to get something for nothing. To Hell with them.

I think the verdict is a just one. I still think it is sad that a young woman lost her life, even if she was a deluded girl fighting for the wrong cause and it was her own fault.
