In Memory of Rachel Corrie : A Palestinian hero .
Rachel Corrie was a 23-year-old American peace activist from Olympia, Washington, who was crushed to death by an Israeli bulldozer on 16 March 2003, while undertaking nonviolent direct action to protect the home of a Palestinian family from demolition.I should at least mention that I am also discovering a degree of strength and of basic ability for humans to remain human in the direst of circumstances – which I also haven’t seen before. I think the word is dignity. I wish you could meet these people. Maybe, hopefully, someday you will.

Both Christians and Muslims enjoying Christmas in Bethlehem. At the church of the nativity.
But which are Christian and which are Muslim? At times we often forget how similar we are and that we love the same God.
(The first two images are of Muslim women. The third is of Christian men praying, and the fourth of a Christian woman.)
Peace is possible.
Merry Christmas

I would like to see my grave. I would maybe just sit beside it, shivering maybe thinking about being placed inside. I would touch the dirt around it and imagine myself beneath it. I don’t think anyone given 15 minutes in that scenario would ever be able to live the same way again.

A Palestinian father and infant martyred by Zionist strikes on Gaza.
This image and others must prick the conscience of any human being, especially Muslims. So let us not forget what it means when we say, ‘Everyday is Ashura, Every land is Karbala.’ Let us not turn a blind eye…
