Moron watch...

I was over at Right-Thinking from the Left Coast (why?...Hell if I know...I just ended up there) where they are having a "discussion" regarding the death of Rachel Corrie (warning...there are some grim pictures at the Corrie link), when I came across this comment:

I watched the video. My response: And?

It's a video not of the incident itself but of hospital scenes and fellow human shields crying their crocodile tears for the loss of someone who was there to die (human shield, right?). Well, I am over-f*cking-whelmed, let me tell you. You don't think I've seen hospital video before? The Learning Channel's Trauma - Life in the ER show has shown much worse. I've seen gunshot victims bleed to death on the street before--I'm sure many people here have seen much worse. And let's be perfectly serious here, since the intifada began, I've seen innocent Israeli intestines, arms, legs, little girls wth nails embedded in their skulls, torsos in a dance club...so this, this video of this terrorist conspirator and accomplice to murder, doesn't even begin to shock me. I don't think I can be more clear here: What happened to her was her own doing. She was an enemy to freedom and a person who was so filled with hate that she joined hands with Islamic fascism and castigated liberal Western democracy. She was an enemy to everything that is good in this world. She was a bigot, a person devoid of morals, and fueled by hatred of Jews who have been pleading--for fifty five years--to be left alone and be allowed to live in peace. The more I think about her the more she disgusts me.

What I want to see are pictures of the incident itself. Why did they have to fake the pictures with two different bulldozers (obviously two different days)? Where are the IDF units? One would think if they IDF ran over someone with a 100,000 lb. armored D-9 class bulldozer, they would be around with military or medical help. Where were they? Did the driver run over her, get out of the vehicle and run for the hills? Where was he? There are far too many loose ends here.

I would rather be thought an anti-Semite than be on the side of a person like this.
