Stop the partisan bickering   I have done a review of all the sources for this article and here is a synopsis all emphasis is mine  NYT   An Israeli Army bulldozer today crushed to death an American woman who had kneeled in the dirt to prevent the armored vehicle from destroying a Palestinian home in the southern Gaza Strip witnesses and hospital officials said  CNN   An Israeli bulldozer killed an American woman Sunday who had been protesting its use to destroy Palestinian houses in Rafah  Other witnesses however reported that Corrie had scaled a pile of dirt but then lost her footing and fell backward behind it out of sight of the bulldozer operator The bulldozer continued moving forward covering Corrie with dirt and then crushing her  BBC    Rachel Corrie died in March during a protest against the demolition of a house in the southern Gaza Strip She suffered multiple injuries when an Israeli Army bulldozer ran over her and later died in hospital  However the army said that military police investigating the incident found that Corrie was killed by earth and building rubble falling on her as she tried to climb on a pile of earth while the bulldozer was operating  Seattle Times AP   The International Solidarity Movement said Rachel Corrie of Olympia Wash was in the line of vision of the bulldozer driver Sunday as she stood in his path to try to prevent the demolition of a Palestinian home in the Rafah refugee camp  The Israeli military said Sunday that Corries death was an accident It said small windows in the bulldozers cab restricted the drivers vision   Haaretzcom  A yearold American woman Rachel Corrie a college student from Olympia Washington who belonged to the International Solidarity Movement in the territories was killed yesterday by an IDF bulldozer during a house demolition in Rafah  Guardian UK    An Israeli army investigation into the death of Rachel Corrie an American peace activist has concluded that its forces were not to blame for her death  Corrie  was crushed to death by an army bulldozer in Rafah Gaza as she protested against house demolitions  Jerusalem Post   An IDF investigation into their daughters death ruled that it was an accident but members of the proPalestinian International Solidarity Movement for whom Rachel  was volunteering at the time of her death claimed that the IDF bulldozer driver saw Corrie and drove over her as she and a small group of ISM activists tried to stop him from razing a home  Observer Guardian UK   A peace activist with the International Solidarity Movement ISM Corrie knelt in the path of the Israeli machine to prevent it demolishing a house near the Egyptian border in the southern Gaza Strip  These  sources are the most reliable mainstream sources current in the article  They agree on these basic facts  Corrie was killed by an IDF buzzdozer She was protesting house demolition by acting as a human shield The IDF investigation concluded the death was an accident  It seems to me that various editors on one partisan side of this debate here are trying to whitewash this article by repeatedly inserting weasel words such as she believed was about to destroy  while editors on the other partisan side of the debate are trying to insert extra detail about eg home demolitions that properly belongs in the article on that topic ie the widespread nature of it etc  I do not understand all of the byzantine rules of Wikipedia yet but I find this whole situation ridiculous  I agree that the article should limit itself to facts that directly bear on Corrie and not the larger IsraelPalestine conflict or home demolition or arms smuggling issues but also that the lead should state plainly that Corrie was killed while trying to obstruct home demolition and that the IDF has stated that the death was an accident  All the rest of the weaseling is just plain wrong and borders on the pushing of subtle and not so subtle propaganda from both sides  From what I read partisans from the proIsraeli side have been sent here to influence this article and I have no doubt that there are partisans from the other side as well  Can we just oust the partisans and say directly what the eight mainstream sources above say  Tom Ketchum   Tom I will read your final paragraph to indicate that people were sent here and I believe it was mentioned in the Camera controversy  I will assume that you are observing
