Court Rules Israel Wasn’t at Fault in U.S. Activist’s Death

Quote

HAIFA, Israel — An Israeli judge ruled on Tuesday that the state bore no responsibility for the death of Rachel Corrie, the young American woman who was run over by a military bulldozer in 2003 as she protested housing demolitions in the Gaza Strip.

The lengthy verdict in the civil case, read to a courtroom packed with supporters of Ms. Corrie’s family here, called the death an accident that occurred during “a military activity meant to prevent terrorist activity.”

“She chose to put herself in danger,” said the judge, Oded Gershon. “She could have easily distanced herself from the danger like any reasonable person would.”

More at link but that's it in a nutshell.

I'm going to IHOP. Heh.  :cheersmate:

A good outcome, if someone puts themselves in danger and dies, its their own fault.

It had to be declared almost ten years later.
