Raphael Mimoun רפאל מימון

22 years ago today, Rachel Corrie was crushed to death by an Israeli bulldozer while she was trying to protect a Palestinian home from demolition.

Don't forget her, don't forget the thousands of Palestinians who face this violence every day.

Raph,
Somehow, hearing this tribute from you, makes all the difference. You've been continuing her work. You ARE carrying her torch forward. I have a deep well of gratitude for you and your counterparts. Thank you. 💗

@raph
How do her parents ever deal with this?

The anguish must be unbearable.

@raph I NEVER forget her. Always carrying her words "I'm here because I care" such a powerful statement. #gazagenocide #gaza #israelKillsChildren #FreePalestine

@raph also remember when Israel knowingly attacked an american ship uss liberty killing us sailors

@raph I'm probably never going to be as strong as she must have been.

@raph @PhilNeal She is my ‘quote of the day’ person today at work. I’m telling my coworkers about her all day.

@raph Her death is what informed me of what was really happening in Palestine. Before that I just swallowed the Zionist propaganda in the US news. #RachelCorrie #Gaza #FreePalestine

@raph And 22 years ago, there were people who called Rachel Corrie a terrorist sympathizer. Same shit, different assholes. (Or possibly the same assholes.)
