The U.S. response, Secretary of State Anthony Blenkin.

We deplore this tragic loss.

Now, the most important thing to do is to gather the facts and that's

exactly what we're in the process of doing and we are intensely focused on getting

those facts and any actions that we take are

Aishinor's family is calling for an independent investigation. We'll hear an

eyewitness account from Israeli activist Jonathan Pala, who held Aishinur as she lay dying.

And we'll speak with another U.S. citizen who was shot in the leg last month as he took part in the same weekly

We'll also speak with a friend of Aishina Agi from the University of Washington where she just graduated and will be joined by the parents of Rachel

Corey, the American student who was crushed to death by an Israeli bulldozer in Gaza

Inside the Brutal Siege of Janine.
