MEANING?:
Double standard: Israel escapes sanctions imposed on other nations (Bill Kaufmann, 5/31/04, Calgary Sun)
In Washington state, a mother still struggles over the meaning of her daughter's sacrifice.In March, 2003, Rachel Corrie, 23, was crushed to death in Rafah, Gaza, beneath an Israeli bulldozer in an incident photos and witnesses suggest was a cold-blooded killing.
Meaning? The wages of hate-mongering is death. Posted by Orrin Judd at May 31, 2004 3:46 PM
That and "Stupidity cannot be cured. Stupidity is the only universal capital crime; the sentence is death. There is no appeal, and execution is carried out automatically and without pity."

Posted by: Oswald Booth Czolgosz at May 31, 2004 9:52 PMThe meaning of her death is that white girls who stand in front of weapons of war, in war zones, during wars will die. They will not be spared because they are white, American, or students at Evergreen State. They will die a horrible death. Its really not very complicated.
As a general note, unarmed non-combatants should give combat zones and active war making machinery (even if it resembles civilian machinery) a very wide berth. If you can see it or hear it you are too close.
