RACHEL CORRIE

As a refreshing change from the usual claptrap that the cottonwools habitually feed the public, I urge you to read a post on Jameel's blog:

You will find the facts and opinions expressed there a welcome relief from the Berkeleyite point of view.
Do please feel free to do your own thinking, if you are capable of it.

Update: Jameel adds the following:

Every time the term "St. Pancake" gets posted, people get very annoyed. The term originates from the LGF website, when the ISM chapter of Victoria announced a memorial pancake breakfast, in the memory of Rachel Corrie!

After ISM realized that their joke at Corrie's expense, was also being used to make fun of the ISM, they removed the text.

The invitation read as follows:

The Rachel Corrie Memorial Committee of Victoria Invites you to a pancake breakfast at Denny’s Restaurant Sunday March 12 , 2006 10 am.

The Public is invited to a memorial pancake breakfast at Denny’s Restaurant on Douglas Street near Finlayson, 10 am, Sunday March 12, 2006 to celebrate the life and untimely death of Rachel Corrie, Peace Activist with the International Solidarity Movement.

There will be a reading of selections from Ms. Corrie’s letters and diary, followed by a ceremony at Topaz Park, where a stone cairn will be erected in her honour.

Attendees are encouraged to wear their keffiahs, and to dress in black.

No weapons, drugs, or alcohol please.


Pancake. Please remember that. To the ISM her primary function was as a pancake.

May her odious parents follow in her footsteps.

It irritates me to see very large white people in Chinatown. This is probably because I am bigoted against humongous Midwestern heffalumps. ...
