3. I would add that there is no questions for the deaths of Palestinian
solidarity activists, either.
Rachel Corrie. If she were killed in any other nation, the United States would have insisted on an independent inquiry. Despite the fact that the State Department finds inadequate the official Israeli explanation for her death (called deliberate murder by eyewitnesses), and the State Department has NOT closed the case, there will be no action taken.

James Miller. A journalist. Killed by Israeli soldier in Gaza. http://www.justice4jamesmiller.info/home.htm


Brian Avery. http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=05/02/25/1455249

Tom Hurndall. Because of heavy media pressure, his parents were able to get an investigation into his death. As a result, an Israeli soldier was convicted of killing him without reason. The soldier said that he had orders to kill anyone in that area. Including the Palestinian children that Tom was assisting.


As to Palestinians, we could post all day, every day, about all the Palestinians who have killed needlessly and not be done naming each one, and giving the circumstances of each death.

This is a crime that the United States is complicit, and we must demand change and accountability.
