One week before Nov. 4, the tenth anniversary
of the Rabin murder,
the country's largest circulation newspaper, Yediot Achronot publishes
a poll:
Do you believe in the conspiracy theory about Rabin's murder?
Yes 25%
Not sure 9%
It was the lowest result of five polls taken in the past four
years but it shocked the nation.
As Yediot wrote; "Unbelievable, but one in four Israelis
believe Rabin was shot by the Shabak."
In fact, the figure was more. Yediot's poll included 20% Arab
respondents,
who are utterly unaware of the issue. Factor them in with the
not sures and over
40% of the nation's Jews no longer believe the government.
Sunday, five days before Nov. 4, Yigal Amir's prosecutor Pnina
Guy admits the second shot
to Rabin was from point blank range, a fact I exposed almost a
decade before.
Still, it is redemption for me. Since Amir never shot point blank,
he announced that he wanted a new trial:
Yigal Amir, who never denied assassinating Prime
Minister Yitzchak Rabin, is now strongly considering
requesting a new trial - now that the case prosecutor
has raised some major questions herself.
Atty. Penina Guy, the prosecutor in Amir's trial in
early 1996, said Sunday morning that some aspects of
the murder are still not clear to her: "It's still a
mystery to me how he managed to shoot three bullets
and at the same time even approach Rabin, and,
according to the ballistic evidence, actually touch
Rabin's jacket for the third bullet."
However, Amir himself was surprised by the end of
Prosecutor Guy's statement. According to his wife,
Larissa Trimbobler, Yigal was surprised to hear that
the murderer came as near as Rabin's jacket. "Yigal
has always said that this is not true," she told
Arutz-7 today. "He did not approach Rabin; rather,
Rabin got further and further away from him. Yigal
also says that he certainly never touched Rabin or his
jacket."

However, it was not a day before Amir's webmaster and handler
Mike Guzovsky changed
this stance to one of ugly incitement. Now, according to Amir's
Shabak-run website,
anyone who was in favor of disengagement, also deserved to be
slaughtered.
The Amir issue was ended, but not before Shimon Peres used it
for maximum advantage:
Yigal Amir?s mother said: ?Those who were in favor of the
disengagement should be hung in the streets. What rubbish! Who
is she?
And who are the hilltop youth? And rabbis give orders to the army?
Who
appointed them? On this issue, we must be the most blunt, determined,
united and serious as we can be. There will be no concessions
here and no
looking the other way. This is vital not only for the IDF but
for the
existence of the state.
My webmaster David Rutstein no longer consults with me.
He added two provocative images of Peres to the site, one behind
bars,
the other with his hands dripping in blood. I wasn't in favor
but he promised results, and they did come in.
Major media from Channel 10 -TV to both Maariv and Yediot's websites
condemned the images
and the state attorney general presented them to the Knesset cabinet
to decide whether to prosecute or not:

Tuesday, Nov 1, I became legitimate. I was invited to appear on
a highly respected and staid tv program,
Law And Judgement. This is a prime time show on the government's
second channel.
The situation is three prominent attorneys interviewing guests
with relevant legal issues to share.
The guest before me was the new state attorney general.
He was interviewed alone and I assumed I was to be.
But no. Fifteen minutes before the start of the program I was
informed
I would be sharing the show with prosecutor Pnina Guy and former
head of the Mossad Danny Yatom.
It was now five against one. I had been set up.
But, as numerous viewers told me after, I won.
Guy had backtracked from her doubts of two days before as she
was obviously scripted to do.
Yatom was all prepared to smear every rabbi, religious Jew and
anyone from the Right.
But I brought evidence and had it filmed before I began my shpiel.
I was not given a lot of time, and under great pressure I showed
Israel the ambulance beside Rabin's car,
the watch showing how Shamgar lied about the murder time, the
infamous songsheet.
I defended myself with the facts and my co-guests did not even
try to answer them.
After sitting quietly for nearly ten minutes while Yatom spewed
ugly venom
against the supposed inciters of the Rabin murder, I became brazen.
I told the host,"Do you know he just slandered half the country
and you let him?"
After the show, neither Yatom nor Guy would accept my book as
a present.
But I knew a little about Yatom, so here I am telling the former
head of the Mossad,
"Are you aware that the London Observor wrote that Netanyahu
gave you the Mossad
job in return for silence about Rabin?" Yatom turned red
and replied, "I already had the job from him."
That night, somebody decided I was serious enough to sit on the
same panel as the country's most
famous prosecutor and the former head of the Mossad. Even odder,
they agreed to sit with me.
And the next night was just as significant. I was invited as a
guest on Channel Ten's prime time talk show,
London And Kirschenbaum. The guest before me was Ami Ayalon, former
head of the Shabak.
My, what company I was suddenly keeping.
Yaron London is the nation's most influential literary critic
and Moti Kirschenbaum
was chairman of the Israel Broadcasting Authority at the time
of Rabin's murder.
In my book, I lambast him for authorizing two staged reports about
Yigal Amir
and Avishai Raviv's phoney organization, Eyal.
And he was hopping mad about that. He had his say and I didn't
think I'd get mine.
But I reminded him that other guests were permitted to speak freely
and I was off and running.
I presented an overview of Israel television's role in creating
Eyal and Amir and
he agreed that mistakes were made. Most important of all, he admitted
the reports on Eyal were staged.
London interrupted and told me, "I'm really mad at you."
I smirked broadly and answered, "Why aren't I surprised?"
He continued, "Why wasn't I in your book for something?"
I replied, "Send a director to stage tv reports for the government
and next time you will be."
London, the preferred literary critic of the country, then lifted
my Rabin book to the camera
and recommended it as an alternative to his way of thinking.
I won.
And I kept winning. The major web sites suddenly wrote very positive
things about my work
and most of the reactions were highly positive.

9:30, Thursday, November 3, the conspiracy finally goes public
for good.
Channel two broadcast a one hour documentary proving Rabin was
shot a third time and from the front.
This is only my core claim for the past nine years. Rabin's clothing
had been sitting untouched
in the prime minister's archive for the past decade. The filmmakers
retrieved them and found
a frontal bullet hole in the shirt and undershirt. It wasn't where
I said they'd be but now my central
claims that Rabin had been shot point blank was verified by Pnina
Guy, and from the front, by Channel Two.
I couldn't watch the show properly so many people called to congratulate
me.
One complaint: the film used so much of my discoveries ie. the
change in the time of the murder,
Prof. Hiss reporting the hole in the front of Rabin's shirt,
Health Minister Sneh reporting three bullets etc. and gave me
no credit.
But it didn't matter. The viewers knew I had won, we had won.
The film was followed by an hour panel discussion where Hiss'
lies finally caught up with him
and Sneh tried to obfuscate his statement on the night of the
murder by attacking the right wing inciters.
This time, everyone agreed he sounded hollow.
Most important of all, the Left, for once showed integrity.
Ronen Bergman of Haaretz eloquently demanded a reinvestigation
of the Rabin murder,
"to dispel once and for all the conspiracy theories threatening
our democracy."
Of course if that third bullet hole is for real, Amir didn't cause
it, so he'll get his
conspiracy whether he likes it or not. And the next day, Tom Segev
of Haaretz
demanded that every point of the conspiracy theories be re-examined.
Haaretz became our ally? I never thought I'd live to see the day.

Friday, Nov. 4 was the best anniversary Yitzhak Rabin could
have ever wished for.
His personal bodyguard, Dror Yitzhaki appeared on Channel Two
with his own deep
suspicions of the Shabak's involvement in the murder.
He joined the media chorus to reinvestigate the Rabin murder.
And what a chorus it was this year.
The Friday papers presented excellent long analyses of the conspiracy.
The chorus included Makor Rishon, Yated Neeman, and Hashavuah.
As expected the Jerusalem Post barely mentioned the number one
issue of the nation this Nov. 4.
But best of all was Maariv's 4 page investigation of the conspiracy
claims.
Reporter Navah Tsuriel did a fair and excellent overview of the
conspiracy claims and found that many were not wanting.
And congratulations to her for finally solving the riddle of the
death of Yoav Kuriel.
Yes, he was a Rabin bodyguard and yes, he was murdered.
She got eye-witnesses at the burial society to speak out after
ten years.
I never thought I'd live to see the day when not just Haaretz,
but Channel Two and Maariv
stopped protecting the establishment and started acting like journalists.
I never thought I'd ever see the day when Channels 33 and 10 invited
me to prime time programs to debate the establishment.
I never thought I'd see the day when the Israeli public would
wake up and admit Rabin was murdered in a political coup.
I never thought I would live to see myself vindicated.
I never thought we would actually win.
I never thought I'd be so glad I was wrong.
