LET ME STAND ALONE THE JOURNALS OF RACHEL CORRIE
by CINDY CORRIE Monday, Apr. 07, 2008 at 3:08 PM

MAY DEATH BE UPON YOU ZIONISM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let Me Stand Alone: The Journals of Rachel Corrie‏
Friends,

I am thrilled to announce the release of my daughter Rachel’s writings in the new book Let Me Stand Alone – The Journals of Rachel Corrie, published by W.W. Norton & Co. and available in bookstores and online! I am also excited to invite you to attend a series of book launch events across the country that Craig and I will be participating in during the month of April. We hope that you and your friends will join us to celebrate Rachel’s book at one of these events and that you will use the attached flyer to help us spread the word about each one.

We are particularly excited that the first book event, on Saturday, April 5th in Berkeley, California, will be filmed by C-SPAN for later broadcast on the program “Book TV”. This is a wonderful way to launch Rachel’s book and the book tour. We want to make sure the audience is filled for C-SPAN so if you are in the Bay Area, please join us that evening and bring your friends! The event is sponsored by KPFA Radio Station and additional information and advanced ticket sales can be found at their website http://kpfa.org/events/index.php?#1584 More detailed information about all the events is listed below and on the attached flyer.

Working on the book was an alternately exhilarating and challenging process. We agonized over every editing decision—which pieces would Rachel have included? Which would she have wanted to work on further? However, we knew how much Rachel wanted her writing to have a wider impact and we still believe deeply that the questions she pondered and the realities she witnessed are universally important to confront. It is a true milestone for our family, and for Rachel, that her words in this book reach the world.

More information about Let Me Stand Alone, including how to purchase it, can be found at http://www.letmestandalone.com <http://www.letmestandalone.com/> If we are not scheduled to be in your area during the April book tour, but you would like to organize a future reading, you can contact us through this website as well.

As Craig wrote in the introduction to the book: Words were sacred to Rachel, and her words have become treasures to us. They are what we have left and are an immense gift to our family. With this book, we offer that gift to you.

We look forward to seeing you in Berkeley, Seattle, Olympia, Portland, DC, New York, Iowa City or Minneapolis! Please do help us spread the word.

Thank you!



Cindy Corrie

The group claims to operate completely independent of the Palestinian Authority and its various internal factions, but it also claims to be "Palestinian led." The group is dedicated to nonviolent direct action in the tradition of Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr., but it is using that nonviolent direct action in the service of a liberation movement whose favored direct-action tactic in recent years has been suicide bombings. And here is the most glaring contradiction: Virtually all of the foreign activists currently in Rafah characterize themselves as anarchists. They reject notions of hierarchy and even the very idea of a political state. Stefan, Rachel's boyfriend at the time of her death, is an anarchist and says that although Rachel didn't like labels, she could fairly be described as an anarchist too.

SETTING THE RACHEL CORRIE STORY STRAIGHT ON YOUTUBE

If you go to the links below you can view part of the television show I hosted in 2005 about Rachel Corrie and the false accusations she was murdered by the IDF. Photos were doctored by Joseph Smith aka Joseph Carr of the ISM and Christian Peacemaker Teams to add to the lie. Reuters used those photos, then retracted them. We'll have further proof the photos were doctored in upcoming videos.

We will be showing on You Tube several of the Club Cruz Shows where we debunk the lies of ISM activists, many times right in front of them on the show. Keep an eye out for them. Meanwhile, for the truth about Rachel Corrie, visit the links below:

remember
by Prionpartyy Tuesday, Apr. 15, 2008 at 6:10 PM

The ONLY thing those rachels had in commun with R.C was a first name.

THOSE Rachels you mentioned are far more comparable to Oscar Schindler and ALL the OTHER NAZI civilians who joined up with the NAZISs who did carry guns and did murder Poles to occupy Poland and FEAST off the myserry of the vanquished Palestinian victims of the Zonist's crusade.

SO do remember THOSE other Rachels and remember that there are many more Zionist crusaders named named Rachel who still FEAST off the mysery of the vanquished palestinians as Zionist continue stealing more and more Palestinian lands and continue to murder the Palestinians who dare to resist the Zionist's continuing offenses.

"The ONLY thing those rachels had in commun with R.C was a first name."

Thats absolutely true.
Rachel Corrie put herself in harms way by playing cat and mouse with a huge bulldozer. The other Rachels were quietly living their lives when they became victims of vicious unspeakably cruel acts of terror.

Oscar Schindler joined in the Nazi's murderous theft of Polish lands and FEASTED off the misery of the vanquished Poles, BUT because he kept over a thousand jews out slave labor camps where many tens of thousands died from typhus, you appease HIS CHOSEN offenses against Poles.

So, what about ALL the OTHER Nazi civilians (which I made damned sure to include in my posts just in case you tried to run away run away by making such vacant diversions from what I actualy DID write) who joined Schindler in feasting off the misery of Poles and didn't svae Jews from nazi slave labor camps? Do you appease their chosen offense too???

by PPyy Wednesday, Apr. 16, 2008 at 3:10 PM

"quietly living their lives" while FEASTING off the misery of the Zionist's chosen victims. Who could be suprized you would casualy leave out the actual conflict in your shallow attempts to scapegoat the Palestinian freedom fighters for the hostilities the Zionist's chosen war of conquest created.

Zionist occupation of Palestinian lands is a state of WAR. DUH. their very presence in Zionist occupied Palestinian lands is an offense against the Palestinian's right to self determination.

False flag ops are a Zionist specialty. They simply love to steal their enemies' identity. It's a trick. Don't fall for it.

From Bay Area in Women in Black

We would like to clear up the deliberately created confusion about Women in Black at the Sabeel Conference in Berkeley on August 18, 2007. Bay Area Women in Black held no vigil outside the conference nor did any other known or established Women in Black group. The people in the photo posted on Boston Indymedia's site on August 29, 2007 calling themselves "Oakland Women in Black" are actually members of the San Francisco Voice for Israel, who describe themselves as "a grass roots community based organization that takes to the streets to respond to enemies of Israel in the San Francisco Bay Area." They have counter-demonstrated against Bay Area Women in Black for the last four years and use tactics such as producing flyers intended to look like ours to confuse passersby and create disinformation at our weekly vigils. They also try to intimidate people participating in BAWIB vigils by aggressively taking their photo, breaking into picket lines, verbal harassment, etc.

Their intolerance of views critical of the Israeli Occupation and
their aggressive tactics are intended to confuse, misinform,
deceive, and silence others.

We do vigil weekly in Oakland, CA and would love you join us if you are in the area. Check out http://www.bayareawomeninblack.org for more information

So, Nessie, are you the old guy that protests against Israel with the Women in Black on Saturdays in front of the Grand Lake Theater in Oakland from 12-1? Some of the Russian guys in the East Bay wanted to meet you in person.
