Legionary Children of Imperial Lords of global world claim ‘argument of civilizations’ and they connect that imaginary claim to ‘Religions and Races’. A young woman with a great heart have destroyed this imaginary claim when she was 23, she taught the world that the greatest power is the honor of humanity. Her name is Rachel Corrie.
She was not Muslim, She was not Arabian, She was ‘real’ human.
We Turks are a forgetful nation and we paid lot’s of forfeits because of this bad character. We forget pain, we forget oppression, we forget bad times of our great history. The most of us heard Rachel’s name on TV, regretted, maybe cried for her and than we forgot her name another day. Israeli Government has played its characteristic bloody game on 31 May 2010. I don’t want to repeat what they did. 31 May 2010 reminded Young Brave Heart girl to us again. God’s mercy and love with you.
A sick soul thought he could shut her up by crushing her body. SICK SOULS, you will never be understood that you can not crush good souls, strong hearts.
And now, i am feeling ashamed and asking myself ‘why am i still living?’ when i look at her clean and proud picture.
Rachel’s body died some second later of this snapshot. But we know that only her body dead. Her proud soul is still with us, still with Palestinians.
I have read a tweet today. ‘She was alone when she was waylaying bulldozer, She is also alone in the Mediterranean today. It is not just a name of a ship, It is the name of daylight while the world wrapped with blindness.’ ‘(Thank you Mr. Zeki Bulduk.)
PROUD GIRL, YOUR SOUL’S WITH US FOREVER. THANKS FOR YOUR HUMANITY, FOR YOUR COURAGE.
Thanks for showing us what ‘peace’ really means.
CINDY AND CRAIG CORRIE, MANY THANKS YOU TOO.
Let’s pay attention to Rachel’s Family.
:::ACTION ALERT FROM RACHEL’S PARENTS:::
Dear Friends,
On the third anniversary of Rachel’s killing in Gaza, here are three things that we urge you to consider doing today, or as soon as possible:
1) From New York:
“The “Rachel’s Words” initiative is made up of a broad spectrum of groups and individuals who believe that Rachel’s words and her message of human rights and justice should be heard. We hope that Rachel’s Words will open the door for other equally important and silenced voices. We resist the pervasive climate of fear and challenge to free speech that is increasingly prevalent in our society. Rachel wrote about issues that concern us all. People must have the opportunity to hear her message and decide for themselves what they think. Nobody’s agenda should stand in the way of that.”
To endorse this initiative, please go to this link–and to the “About” or “Endorsement” headings http://www.rachelswords.org/about
If you, your family, or your group are spending any time today or in upcoming days returning to Rachel’s e-mails and words, please list this under “Actions” at http://www.rachelswords.org/actions
2) The U.S. Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation has called for a day of action today, March 16th. Please go to their website to learn about their Caterpillar campaign and more that you can do: http://www.endtheoccupation.org/article.php?id=1190
3) While the U.S. Government is on record stating that the report of the Israeli military investigation into Rachel’s killing did not meet the standard of “thorough, credible, or transparent,” the U.S. has taken no steps to investigate this killing of an American citizen by a foreign military. Our family’s often frustrating efforts to demand accountability from both the U.S. and Israeli governments continue. This week, family members are in Washington DC meeting with members of Congress. Please help us. Pick up the telephone and call your representative and Senators in the U.S. Congress and tell them that more must be done and that after three years it is an outrage that members of the Corrie family must still walk the halls of Congress seeking support simply to learn the truth. If you live in Washington State, please make a special call to Senator Murray’s office noting that for three years she and her staff have drug their feet and have refused to take any leadership whatsoever in this matter-leadership that other members of Congress tell us they look to a senior senator to provide when a citizen of their state is so gravely impacted.
Thank you for your continuing care and support.
Cindy and Craig Corrie
