And a year ago today, a nine-ton Israeli bulldozer ran over and killed American peace activist Rachel Corrie in the Palestinian town of Rafah. In Israel, the government maintains her death was a “unfortunate accident.” But it has yet to publicly release the findings of its own investigation completed last June. She died while trying to peacefully stop Israeli forces from bulldozing Palestinian homes. She was 23 years old.
