When Right Wing Religion Judaism murdered peace twenty years ago by nutcases like Netanyahu we have no hope of peace today, tomorrow or ever, it will end in Israel's future destruction again...
Remembering Yitzhak Rabin
Tens of thousands of Israelis have gathered in Tel Aviv to commemorate the late Israeli leader Yitzhak Rabin, who was assassinated by an ultranationalist Israeli 20 years ago.
"Two decades have gone by, and still we remain overly focused on the wounds of the past, and not enough on building the future," Israeli President Reuven Rivlin addressed the crowd.
Israel remembers the man who promised peace
On November 4, 1995, then-Prime Minister Rabin was shot at a peace rally by Yigal Amir, who was motivated by his opposition to the negotiations between the Israeli government and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO).
"Too much are we focused on fear, and not enough on hope," Rivlin said. "We should have no fear."
Former US President Bill Clinton also spoke at the event, while current President Barack Obama addressed the estimated 100,000-strong crowd with a recorded video message.
Speaking to the audience, Clinton said that Rabin "defended the country, but more importantly for tonight, he advanced the values fundamental to Israel [and] stood for freedom, peace, acceptance of those who are different from us.
