[Sca-cooks] Sorry for the bandwith

[Ana Valdés]

Dear SCA friends: A few days ago I was in Palestina Gaza stripe, when I left a
bulldozer killed Rachel Corrie, an American collegestudent. She was 23 years, a
member of ISM, an international activist group trying to stop the destruction of
Palestinian houses in Rafa, near the bordet to Egypt. Rachels death was
horrible, I flew back to Sweden and I am now aghast, Condolezza Rice announced
now USA is going to grant Israel 87 billions dollars in economical and militar
aid. Will Rachels death not change anything?
