When Moonbats get all "Artistic" over Rachel Corrie

Rachel Corrie, who committed suicide as part of the efforts of the ISM to protect and promote Palestinian terrorism, long ago become the patron saint and the pro-terror Madonna figure for the Far Left.

The ISM or "International Solidarity Movement" is a movement of designer-jean extremists who openly endorse Palestinian terrorism and send some of their more clueless members to Israel to lend aid and assistance to the terror. ISM offices have been used to hide terrorists and terror weapons.

The main target of the ISM (which should stand for "I Support Murderers") these days is Israel's Security Wall, which is intended to make it harder for Palestinian suicide bombers and other terrorists to murder Jewish civilians. THAT is precisely why the ISM opposes the "Wall" and uses violence to sabotage it. The ISM simply is in favor of mass murder and atrocities by terrorists against Jews. ISM members routinely attack Israeli police and soldiers violently. And the US-flag burning pro-terror extremist Rachel Corrie is now the martyr saint for those people and their terrorist-abetting activities.

Sycophantic ravings about Corrie are increasingly passing for "art and culture" among the fundamentalist Left. A while back a moonbat at the University of Alaska in Anchorage (UAA), one Philip Munger, wrote a "cantata" about Corrie. Some UAA friends of ours from the frozen politically-incorrect underground there tell us that this "cantata" works better than prunes in curing constipation. Munger used two "poems" written as "memorials" to Corrie but not to any of the victims of the terrorists the ISM promotes, one by San Francisco "poet" Phil Goldvarg and another by Sri Lanka "poet" Thushara Wijeratna. We are not sure but we think that one of those may also have composed the famous work of poetry, "Here I sit broken-hearted, paid my dime..."

The initial performance of the "cantata" was cancelled by UAA due to the outcry from the Alaskan Jewish community, also sometimes known as the Frozen Chosen.

Then a little while back, a "play" was produced , “My Name is Rachel Corrie,” at London’s prestigious Royal Court Theatre. Directed by Alan Rickman, it misrepresents Corrie's life and "mission", including Corrie's foolish attempt to challenge an Israeli bulldozer to a game of chicken as part of her efforts to prevent Israel from destroying terrorist tunnels used to smuggle explosives, weapons and missiles to terrorists. Corrie died as a human shield for a tunnel used by mass murderers.

The Guardian reports why Rickman decided to produce this "play":

'The material revealed a woman who was both ordinary and extraordinary: writing poems about her cat, her friends, her grand mother, the wind; but also, from a strikingly young age, engaging passionately with the world, trying to find her place in it. The earliest material we have is political; aged 10, Rachel wrote a poem about how "children everywhere are suffering" and how she wished to "stop hunger by the year 2000". '

Our guess is that Rickman also finds those declarations about seeking world peace by beauty pageant contestants to be truly moving and really inspirational.

Here is how a real professor of composition viewed the above-mentioned "cantata":

Subject: for Philip Munger
Hello Philip,My name is Jeff Pezzati, I am a professor of composition at the University of Southern California. My pieces have won ASCAP, BMI prizes and the Prix di Rome. I have been informed of your anti-Semitic cantata that is to be performed. This will not be tolerated by the American composer community. The suicide victim "Rachel Corrie," whom you are apparently trying to honor in this piece, killed herself for the cause of promoting Arab terrorism and murder against Jews. I have discussed this with such colleagues as John Corigliano, John Harbison, John Adams, etc. We have all agreed that your music is to be banned from performance in the continental United States. Consider yourself blacklisted.
