American peace activist killed by Israeli Army
I am so angry my hands are shaking.
I do not want one more American dollar going to Israel. It is behaving like an apartheid state — persecuting the Palestinians with brutal force, and murdering people who try to prevent this outrage.
Yesterday an IDF (Israel Defense Forces) bulldozer ran over and killed an unarmed American woman, Rachel Corrie aged 23. This page has more information. Be warned: there are graphic photographs of what happened to her, but I think it is very important that such picture are shown to the world.
We give nearly $3 billion a year to Israel at this point, and it’s being used to kill people. They are requesting an additional $12 billion for this year.
I do not want the blood of Palestinians or anyone else on my hands.
