RACHEL SCHIACCIATA DA UNA RUSPA ISRAELIANA
di Alfredo Facchini16 marzo 2003. Rafah. Sono giornate terribili: lβesercito terrorista con la stella di David Γ¨ impegnato a demolire centinaia di abitazioni lungo il confine tra Gaza e lβEgitto. Γ in corso l'Intifada di Al Aqsa.
Rachel Corrie, 23 anni, attivista statunitense, vola a Rafah per svolgere azioni di interposizione con il suo movimento: l'International Solidarity Movement. Lβunica arma a disposizione Γ¨ il loro corpo.
<<Sono a Rafah. Una cittΓ di 140mila persone, il 60% delle quali sono profughi. Al momento, lβesercito israeliano sta costruendo un muro alto dodici metri tra Rafah e il confine. 602 case sono state completamente rase al suolo dai bulldozer e il numero di quelle parzialmente distrutte Γ¨ ancora piΓΉ alto>>.
Il viaggio di Rachel finirΓ nel peggiore dei modi. PerderΓ la vita proprio nel tentativo di impedire che una ruspa militare demolisse l'abitazione di un medico palestinese. Viene travolta. Schiacciata.
Il tribunale di Haifa sentenziΓ² che il conducente del bulldozer non vide Rachel e che la sua morte fu <<il risultato di un incidente che lei stessa aveva attirato su di sΓ©>>. Una versione vile, smentita da decine di testimonianze.
<<Quel giorno di marzo, durante le operazioni di demolizione, Rachel Corrie e gli altri attivisti internazionali indossavano come di solito un giubbotto arancione fluorescente per essere riconoscibili e si rivolgevano ai soldati con megafoni, restando di fronte ai bulldozer diverse ore per impedire loro di distruggere le abitazioni>>.
Prima di finire sotto i cingoli di una ruspa dellβesercito israeliano Rachel scrive una lettera appassionata a sua madre. Ecco alcuni stralci.
<<Mamma, adesso l'esercito israeliano Γ¨ arrivato al punto di distruggere con le ruspe la strada per Gaza, ed entrambi i checkpoint principali sono chiusi.
Significa che se un palestinese vuole andare ad iscriversi all'universitΓ per il prossimo quadrimestre non puΓ² farlo. La gente non puΓ² andare al lavoro, mentre chi Γ¨ rimasto intrappolato dall'altra parte non puΓ² tornare a casa; e gli internazionali, che domani dovrebbero essere ad una riunione delle loro organizzazioni in Cisgiordania, non potranno arrivarci in tempo.Probabilmente ce la faremmo a passare se facessimo davvero pesare il nostro privilegio di internazionali dalla pelle bianca, ma correremmo comunque un certo rischio di essere arrestati e deportati, anche se nessuno di noi ha fatto niente di illegale.
Sappi che un mucchio di palestinesi molto simpatici si sta prendendo cura di me. Mi sono presa una lieve influenza e per curarmi mi hanno dato dei beveroni al limone buonissimi. E poi la signora che ha le chiavi del pozzo dove ancora dormiamo mi chiede continuamente di te.
Non sa una parola d'inglese ma riesce a chiedermi molto spesso della mia mamma. Vuole essere sicura che ti chiami. Un abbraccio a te, a papΓ , a Sara, a Chris e a tutti. Rachel>>

"21 years after her death in Gaza, Palestinians remember U.S. activist Rachel Corrie
March 30, 2024
AMMAN, Jordan β Twenty-one years ago this month, Rachel Corrie, a young American activist, was protesting the Israeli demolition of homes in the Gaza Strip. Bulldozers had already destroyed the surrounding houses in the neighborhood of Rafah where she was based; on March 16, 2003, they came for the Nasrallah family home where the college student was staying.
A State Department official warns Israel of 'major' reputational damage in Gaza war
Middle East crisis β explained
A State Department official warns Israel of 'major' reputational damage in Gaza warCorrie, wearing an orange fluorescent vest and speaking through a bullhorn, was determined to stop them. Standing alone on a mound of earth in the path of the armored vehicle, she expected the Israeli bulldozer approaching her to come to a halt, as other bulldozers had done when faced with international protesters.
But it kept going, and, as her fellow activists screamed and tried to stop it, the 23-year-old college student from Olympia, Washington, was crushed to death. The Nasrallah family's children watched in horror through a crack in their garden wall.
Since her death, Corrie's legacy has echoed through the years in Gaza and the region, where people name their children after her. It still resonates in the United States, where her journals were turned into books and a play. Her death two decades ago points to a continuing military occupation of Gaza and the destruction of Palestinian civil society in Gaza, where the World Bank estimates Israel has destroyed almost half of all homes since October, when the war with Hamas started.
While the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel and the ensuing war have galvanized the world, Gaza's isolation and deprivation amid ongoing attacks have lasted for as long as many Palestinians β including some of the Nasrallah children β have been alive.
(. . .)
'We are hoping for a million Rachel Corries to be our fearless lifeline,' says Nour Nasrallah, one of the daughters in Corrie's Gaza host family, whose home Corrie was killed trying to save. 'We really need that kind of support right now.'
The Nasrallah family now fears losing their current home in Rafah to an Israeli invasion
Nasrallah, 22, was a toddler when Corrie was killed. She graduated from college in Gaza two months before the war started and has occupied her time since then writing and illustrating a children's book about Corrie titled *I'd Rather Be Dancing!*
'I was just two, but the memories and the stories about her have been passed down through my family from one generation to the next,' Nasrallah tells NPR in voice messages from Gaza. 'My dad always talks about her ... how she was this brave soul and fearlessly stood up for the truth.'
The Nasrallah home was left standing on the day Corrie was killed, but eventually was demolished after Corrie's death β part of an operation in which Israel said it needed to clear the area of hiding places for militants. Now in a different home in Rafah, they are afraid their current home could be demolished in a threatened Israel ground invasion of the city.
'It's scary to think of about losing our home and everything we hold β the memories,' says Nour Nasrallah.
(. . .)
In many ways, the war has magnified and intensified the isolation, death and destruction already inflicted on Gaza for years.
In her final interview, in March 2003, Corrie spoke to the Middle East Broadcasting network, surrounded by the ruins of destroyed houses in Rafah. Shortly before she arrived, the Israeli military bulldozed the city's two largest water wells, knocking out over half of Rafah's water supply.
'In the time I've been here, children have been shot and killed,' she said. 'I feel like what I'm witnessing here is a very systematic destruction of people's ability to survive. And that is incredibly horrifying.'
Two days later, Corrie was dead."

"21 years after her death in Gaza, Palestinians remember U.S. activist Rachel Corrie
March 30, 2024
AMMAN, Jordan β Twenty-one years ago this month, Rachel Corrie, a young American activist, was protesting the Israeli demolition of homes in the Gaza Strip. Bulldozers had already destroyed the surrounding houses in the neighborhood of Rafah where she was based; on March 16, 2003, they came for the Nasrallah family home where the college student was staying.
A State Department official warns Israel of 'major' reputational damage in Gaza war
Middle East crisis β explained
A State Department official warns Israel of 'major' reputational damage in Gaza warCorrie, wearing an orange fluorescent vest and speaking through a bullhorn, was determined to stop them. Standing alone on a mound of earth in the path of the armored vehicle, she expected the Israeli bulldozer approaching her to come to a halt, as other bulldozers had done when faced with international protesters.
But it kept going, and, as her fellow activists screamed and tried to stop it, the 23-year-old college student from Olympia, Washington, was crushed to death. The Nasrallah family's children watched in horror through a crack in their garden wall.
Since her death, Corrie's legacy has echoed through the years in Gaza and the region, where people name their children after her. It still resonates in the United States, where her journals were turned into books and a play. Her death two decades ago points to a continuing military occupation of Gaza and the destruction of Palestinian civil society in Gaza, where the World Bank estimates Israel has destroyed almost half of all homes since October, when the war with Hamas started.
While the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel and the ensuing war have galvanized the world, Gaza's isolation and deprivation amid ongoing attacks have lasted for as long as many Palestinians β including some of the Nasrallah children β have been alive.

'We are hoping for a million Rachel Corries to be our fearless lifeline,' says Nour Nasrallah, one of the daughters in Corrie's Gaza host family, whose home Corrie was killed trying to save. 'We really need that kind of support right now.'
The Nasrallah family now fears losing their current home in Rafah to an Israeli invasion
Nasrallah, 22, was a toddler when Corrie was killed. She graduated from college in Gaza two months before the war started and has occupied her time since then writing and illustrating a children's book about Corrie titled *I'd Rather Be Dancing!*
'I was just two, but the memories and the stories about her have been passed down through my family from one generation to the next,' Nasrallah tells NPR in voice messages from Gaza. 'My dad always talks about her ... how she was this brave soul and fearlessly stood up for the truth.'
The Nasrallah home was left standing on the day Corrie was killed, but eventually was demolished after Corrie's death β part of an operation in which Israel said it needed to clear the area of hiding places for militants. Now in a different home in Rafah, they are afraid their current home could be demolished in a threatened Israel ground invasion of the city.
'It's scary to think of about losing our home and everything we hold β the memories,' says Nour Nasrallah.
(. . .)
In many ways, the war has magnified and intensified the isolation, death and destruction already inflicted on Gaza for years.
In her final interview, in March 2003, Corrie spoke to the Middle East Broadcasting network, surrounded by the ruins of destroyed houses in Rafah. Shortly before she arrived, the Israeli military bulldozed the city's two largest water wells, knocking out over half of Rafah's water supply.
'In the time I've been here, children have been shot and killed,' she said. 'I feel like what I'm witnessing here is a very systematic destruction of people's ability to survive. And that is incredibly horrifying.'
Two days later, Corrie was dead."
