Corrie was a foolish, self-righteous little girl, who went looking for trouble thousands of miles from home, and inserted herself in the midst of a combat zone and did not have enough sense to MOVE OUT OF THE WAY of a bulldozer whose driver had no clear visibility of her. The bulldozer was tasked to destroy houses that were used as shelter for terrorists, by the way. She was not "murdered" any more than a pedestrian killed by a car was, with the crucial difference that pedestrians hit by cars usually are ictims of carelessness on their part (and occasionally the drier), Corrie intentially put herself in harm's way, so she is a victim of her own stupidity.
