tejek, re:I am blind and irrational because I see a possibility that you refuse to see. Good arguing with you Yes, you see the possibility that I'm happy she's dead or I'm a fascist. On both counts you're wrong, blinded by rhetoric and irrational thinking or lack of. You can't see how a driver who's vision from atop a bulldozer is limited to begin with, further obscured by plate steel welded to the cage to protect him from being hit by small arms fire may have trouble seeing things under and directly in front of his blade. Then to make matters worse Rachel kneels down in front of him making it, in my opinion, impossible for him to see her. The fact her own activist friends are describing the events and not the Israeli military or the driver, I might add, gives the story even more credibility. Then they claim she rose up at the last second to be caught under some dirt and was trapped. It sounds like an accident to me. Further evidence to the drivers reasons for not stopping is the fact they had played this dangerous game several times before, kneeling down and jumping out of the way at the last second. Why would they kneel down??? Perhaps so the driver would lose sight of the person and fear they had run them over and stop???? Isn't the activists goal to stop the driver???? You on the other hand lack any evidence and blather on mindlessly about the drivers thirst for blood, blah blah wolf wolf. Then you claim I'm a fascist, some "argument" Ted - do you always use conjecture and hyperbole to present as evidence in a discussion - I thought you were a learned man of facts and critical thinking. Not an irrational person convinced by the hate filled speech from either the Israelis or the Palestinians or even the activists. It hasn't been good arguing/discussion anything with you as you aren't interested in facts surrounding the accident - described by her friends, reported in the New York Times - a fairly left yet accurate paper.
