No, she didn't "deserve" to die. Only criminals/murderers deserve to die, and she was neither.
But she died as a direct consequence of her own stupidity. If she chose to do something other than jumping in front of bulldozer, she would be alive.


Wait a minute.......there's no question she was stupid. However, she did not die from her stupidity. She died because an Israeli decided to kill her with his bulldozer. After reading the various news accounts, I think the Israeli driver saw her and proceeded to kill her.......for whatever motivation.



I would not compare her death to the American heroes who died in Iraq as you did in this post.

where you said:

Nonetheless, she was American.......and I can't help but feel a connection and loss just as I feel a loss with the dead soldiers and those imprisoned by the Iraqis.


I feel a loss for any American who dies in geopolitical upheavals. I feel worse for our soldiers but I feel a loss for her too.

You are an utmost authority on your feelings, they are your own. I personally have different feelings for American patriots, dying serving this country vs. a flag-burner who jumped in front of a bulldozer.

I don't disagree with you.....I do too.
