Obviously, This Will Require Legislation. . . .
So, some do-gooder American college student tried to stop a Israeli Army Caterpillar D9 bulldozer from demolishing Palestinian homes by stepping in front of it.
The result is quite apparent.
In a simple feat of physics, the bulldozer won and now her parents are suing Caterpillar for damages because of human rights violations, war crimes, yadda yadda. The usual garbage leveled on Israel daily is now being used to attack Caterpillar.
Here is a picture of Israeli armored D-9 Caterpillar bulldozers:
Notice the size of the man in relation to the machine. In confrontations of "Man vs. Machine" the machine WILL ALWAYS WIN. It's common sense that a machine weighing 62 tons with 400+ horsepower is dangerous. . .DON'T GET IN FRONT OF IT UNLESS YOU WANT TO DIE!
I feel sorry for Rachel Corrie's parents, grief is a terrible thing, but suing Caterpillar is tantamount to blaming them, the parents, for not teaching their daughter common sense.
First of all, you are in an area of the world drowning in a state of constant deadly violence. To add to you own danger by stepping in front of a moving 62 ton machine is just idiotic.
These people must have never seen the movie Maximum Overdrive.
