In other Mideast news, the parents of the slain American peace activist Rachel Corrie were on hand Tuesday for events marking the seventh anniversary of her killing. Corrie was crushed to death by an Israeli army bulldozer in Gaza as she stood in front of a Palestinian home to help prevent its demolition. Her parents, Craig and Cindy Corrie, have traveled to Israel and the Occupied Territories to take part in a wrongful death lawsuit against the Israeli government. The trial began earlier this month in the Israeli city of Haifa. On Tuesday, the Corries attended a ceremony in Ramallah where Palestinians named a street in Rachel’s honor. Later in the day the Corries returned to Haifa for a performance of a play based on Rachel’s writings called My Name Is Rachel Corrie.
