		The corrie is geologically similar to the French cirque.
		However, where a corrie is an almost complete bowl beyond which the hill generally slopes quite steeply away, a cirque can also be found at the head of a deep, wide U-shaped valley with a relatively flat floor.

		Raised in Olympia, Washington, Corrie was the daughter of Craig Corrie, an insurance executive, and Cindy Corrie, a school volunteer and amateur flautist.
		Corrie's death sparked controversy, in part because she was a U.S. citizen and the first Western activist to be killed in the Arab-Israeli conflict, and in part because of the highly politicized nature of the conflict itself.
		As of March 15, 2005, Corrie's family planned to file a lawsuit against Caterpillar Inc. alleging liability over the death of Corrie and in connection with the equipment used in the home demolitions, which they say is a violation of international law.

	Rachel Corrie, One Year Later (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Corrie and her ISM comrades wanted to help protect the Gaza tunnels, and to protect the "right" of Palestinians to continue to mass murder Israeli civilians.
		The simple fact of the matter was that Corrie had figured the Israeli bulldozer driver could be cowed into backing off if he saw her blocking his access to the terrorist house, and she probably even figured the operator correctly, except he did not see her from his limited-visibility window on the rig.
		Corrie's own parents have gone on their own revenge-jihad against Israel, touring the world to fan the demonization of Israel, and representing daughter Rachel as a "victim of Israel's illegal occupation."

	International Activism: “My Name is Rachel Corrie”
		THE ACCOUNT of Rachel Corrie, the 23-year-old American peace activist killed by an Israeli bulldozer as she tried to prevent the flattening of Palestinian homes in the Gaza Strip, has received a bout of mainstream publicity thanks to a new play about her life currently showing in London’s West End.
		Corrie certainly is concerned more than most by the world’s injustices, but she also has the obsessions one would expect of others her age—she loves Dali and Zelda Fitzgerald, has contempt for her ex-boyfriend and disapproves of her “Economics-major-high achiever-khaki-and-high-heels-Yalie corporate sister.”
		In one of her e-mails to her daughter Corrie’s mother wrote “Palestinians have really been invisible to me.” The same is true for many Britons—but Corrie’s death and the play “My Name is Rachel Corrie” have gone some way in changing that.

	Oh, That Liberal Media: Celebrating Rachel Corrie (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The bias on the Corrie story is particularly repugnant when contemplating the recent horrific bus bombing in Israel.
		First off, Rachel Corrie's parents lie in this article saying that they were pushed into political activism by the death of their daughter (or mini-terrorist sympathizer), Rachel.
		However, I wish to say that whatever bad judgement that Rachel Corrie used, first of all, I wish to say that demonizing her and expressing joy over her unfortunate death is a totally insulting and inappropriate thing to do.

	Rachel Corrie, Continued
		At the time of Corrie's death (5pm), Smith describes Corrie as "sitting, with arms waving" (no megaphone), and another colleague holding the megaphone from a distance.
		Thus, the AP photo and caption fails to note the two most essential factors in determining visibility or lack thereof: 1) Corrie was no longer standing, but had changed to a sitting position, and 2) she was no longer in possession of attention-grabbing megaphone.
		When publishing such a photo, AP is obligated to explain details of chronology; in the absence of any information, readers presume that since the bulldozer appears 8-10 feet away from Corrie, the photographer must have snapped the picture moments before the bulldozer hit her.
