Rachel Corrie trial continues in Israel, reviving controversial case

After Corrie's death, former Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon promised former President Bush a "thorough, credible, and transparent" investigation. But during the course of the trial, evidence has emerged that appears to implicate Israel's Gaza commander in an attempt to obstruct justice.

According to a hand-written military police affidavit from the day after Corrie was killed, the commander of the bulldozer was giving testimony when a colonel dispatched by former southern commander Maj. Gen. Doron Almog interrupted the proceedings and ordered the witness to stop testifying. General Almog, for his part, recently denied that he interdicted the testimony, which attorney Abu Hussein said could have been crucial for assessing whether the bulldozer commander's assertion that he did not see Rachel Corrie was reasonable.

Judge Oded Gershon has granted state requests to protect some witnesses' identities by having them testify behind a partition curtain that enables the judge and lawyers to see them, but not the observers in the courtroom.

The commander of a second bulldozer that was on the scene at the time of the incident testified Thursday without the Corries being able to see him.

"While Rachel stood in front of a wall to protect the two families huddled behind it, the state is now making the soldiers hide behind a wall that denies us the opportunity to see them. The state of Israel has been hiding for over seven years. Where is the justice?" said Cindy Corrie, Rachel's mother.

Is Justice a farce in Israeli kangaroo court.

If the IDF are tough enough to take on grandmothers, infants, rock throwing teens, homemade rockets and bomb surely they can face a musician, a retired insurance agent, and the sister of the decease in court that happened to be dirt under their tracks.

My only comment is that Israel is so used to cowing defenseless Palestinians that they have a tin ear when they try to same tactics against other nations who expect a better standard of human justice. The Rachael Corrie incident and the boarding of the first Palestinian aid ship show Israeli knee jerk tactics perfectly.

Peaceful resistance to Israeli tactics must be met with extreme Israeli violence. A non violent Gandhi or a Dr. Martin Luther King are a Israeli State enemy and must be killed without mercy as job one. And with all the violence the Israeli state can muster and the sooner the better.

Silly rabbits, justice is only for Israelis.

that is no surprise,
though Hamas is no peace and harmony either,
you can go against children getting killed in Gaza by IDF and people would call you a terrorist here,
no sense or logic, no sense of humanity.

The military enjoys the state's sovereign immunity. The idea that the military would be held accountable to civilians in a civilian court is laughable.

Hiding the soldiers does seem a little strange though. Those soldiers have nothing to be ashamed of. They served bravely and with distinction. So much distinction that they've warranted international attention.

there are many things under the surface.
