Catch-and-Release Terrorism
Remember Rachel Corrie, who died in March 2003 in a accident she caused by standing in the way of an Israeli bulldozer that was filling in a weapons-smuggling tunnel in Rafah, Gaza? Her parents, who've taken up her cause, had their own brush with danger in Rafah this morning, the Associated Press reports:
Five gunmen burst into a house and tried to kidnap Rachel Corrie's parents, Craig and Cindy. The gunmen eventually relented after being told who their targets were.
When we described Rachel Corrie as a "terror advocate," we received lots of e-mails howling in protest. If this description was unfair, can someone please explain why these terrorists "relented after being told who their targets were"?
