� Too Hot for New York - Rachel�s Words

� Too Hot for New York - Rachel�s Words: "When she died on March 16, 2003, Rachel Corrie had been in the Middle East for fifty days as a member of the International Solidarity Movement (ISM), a group recruiting Westerners to serve as �human shields� against Israeli aggression � including the policy of bulldozing Palestinian houses to create a wider no man�s land between Egypt and then-occupied Gaza. Corrie was crushed to death when she stood in front of a bulldozer that was proceeding toward a Palestinian pharmacist�s house. By witnesses� accounts, Corrie, wearing a bright orange vest, was clearly visible to the bulldozer�s driver. An Israeli army investigation held no one accountable."
