Britain’s Observer actually uses the Islamofascist’s favorite word “martyr” to describe terror-enabling International Solidarity Movement member Rachel Corrie, as they report that the distorted agitprop play about her diary is one of the hottest theater tickets in London: Diary of an American martyr inspires a young audience in theatre’s hit play. (Hat tip: NC.)

She was the young American with blond hair whose death became an unlikely but powerful political symbol for the troubles of Palestine.

Now Rachel Corrie, crushed to death by an Israeli army bulldozer in the Gaza Strip two years ago, has caught the imagination of a fresh audience as her life story emerges as one of the most sought-after theatre tickets in the country.

The disgraceful play does not include a dramatization of this scene, featuring young blond-haired Rachel Corrie shortly before her death, teaching the children of Rafah how to burn an American flag:
