RABIN ASSASSINATION ANNIVERSARY COMING UP
The following review was recently published in the Jewish Chronicle,
Britain's largest and most influential Jewish publication.
Author Probes Rabin Murder Conspiracy
Reviewed by Ian Heiss
Chronicle Special Correspondent
Yitzhak Rabin, it is written on the opening page of this book, was
murdered
on November 4, 1995.
This is one fact all can agree on.
After that, according to Barry Chamish's book, there is little
consistency in
the testimony of persons and recollections of events surrounding the
assassination. This is to be expected.
But why would physical evidence also be at variance? Why would Yigal
Amir be able to inflict powder burns on Rabin's clothing when film of the
event shows Amir at a distance from Rabin when he fired his shots?
According to ballistic experts these powder burns could only have occured if
the gun was pressed against Rabin's body.
Further, Chamish claims the same film shows Rabin unhurt after the shots
were fired, no evidence of recoil from the shots could have done irreparable
damage to his body.
The same film shows a back door of the Rabin limousine being slammed
before Rabin entered, or was helped, by varying accounts, into the
limousine.
The death certificate states that Rabin was shot in the chest and that
his
spine was shattered. Only later did the doctors change their version to
Rabin
being shot only in the back with no spinal damage.
The acounts of the assassination, according to Chamish, vary widely.
Some heard one shot, two shots, five shots. Rabin was seen by many as not
being hit after his encounter with Amir. This includes several police
officers
and citizens who say he walked briskly towards his car. Yet by the time he
got to the hospital, he was unconscious from loss of blood and suffering
gaping wounds.
The driver, one of the best in Israel, could not find the direct route to
the
hospital and did not radio ahead. When Rabin arrived, the medical staff was
not prepared to minister to him.
In his book, Chamish has brought enough data and personal testimony
about the assassination to create a question in the reader's mind as to the
verity of the official version of the circumstances of Rabin's death.
There are successful assassinations where the murderers never get
caught, but the possible conspiracy to murder Rabin shouldn't be one of
them.
The author shows strong connections between Amir and the anti-peace
organization called EYAL. This is significant because this front
organization
was created by Israel's General Security Services (Shabak) and run by
Shabak agent Avishai Raviv.
While he doesn't make a case for the root of the conspiracy to murder
Rabin, Chamish clearly shows the links that Amir has to Raviv. And both the
proximity of Shabak agents at the time of the assassination and the
unexplained lapses in security, are also major failures to protect the Prime
Minister.
All of them together could be an overwhelming argument for conspiracy.
Previously, Britain's other major Jewish newspaper, Manchester's The
Jewish Telegraph published a similarly respectful review and added an
editorial column written by editor Paul Harris which demanded a
reinvestigation of the Rabin murder, noting, "Chamish is a writer of renown
who has stumbled upon something which will have repercussions in Israel
and the Middle East for a long time to come."
Both of Britain's major Jewish newspapers have now endorsed the
conclusion that the Israeli government is not remotely telling the truth
about
the Rabin assassination.
As have numerous other prestigious publications:
"Chamish's version is the only possible explanation." - Uri Geller,
London
Times
"Chamish examines the evidence carefully...His book is strangely
convincing." - Alex Auswaks, Jerusalem Post
"One must read Chamish's book critically but with the possibility of
acquiring a new perspective on the Rabin assassination." - Prof. Uri
Millstein, Makor Rishon
"A fast-paced, well written account, perfect for anyone seeking insight
into
Israeli society." - Charles A. Coulombe, Fate Magazine
"The questions raised demand a reinvestigation of the Rabin
assassination from the ground up." - Asher Zuckerman, Kol Hashavuah
The fourth anniversary of Rabin's murder is approaching. This year, you
may report the official version of the commemoration as usual, but know that
it is deliberately wrong and that you will eventually be overtaken by
events.
The evidence is in the hands of hundreds of thousands of Israelis who are
saying the official story just doesn't add up. They are demanding the truth
and not reporting this fundamental fact, is the ultimate insult to Rabin's
memory.
