President Rivlin on Yitzhak Rabin

[ssba]

“Rabin was not murdered because of the man he was or because of the beliefs and ideas he held. The assassin regarded him as a national symbol and shot him wishing to undermine the decision-making abilities of Israel’s democratic government. That murder was not only a traumatic experience that must not be forgotten, but also a decisive national breaking point.” (Israeli President Reuven Rivlin in Fathom’s eBook The Life and Legacy of Yizhak Rabin)
