-
- A gathering marking the 10th anniversary of the assassination
of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin will be postponed a week to allow
former U.S. President Bill Clinton to attend, organizers said Thursday.
-
- At Clinton's request, the event, originally set for Nov.
5, will take place on Nov. 12, a day after Clinton arrives in Israel, said
Moshe Debby, spokesman for the Rabin study center in Tel Aviv.
-
- Rabin was gunned down after a peace rally in Tel Aviv
on Nov. 4, 1995. Clinton is expected to address a memorial at the site
of the assassination after speaking at the a conference kickoff dinner
sponsored by the Saban Center for Middle East Policy, both on Nov. 12.

-
- Rabin's memorial rally was delayed to accommodate
Clinton. That pretty well sums up how badly Rabin's memory has been corrupted.
But on the bright side, it gives us more time to prepare to be there with
the truth.
-
- Rabin can save this nation from its enemies if anyone
cares to have it saved anymore. The world media will be out in force to
cover the tenth anniversary. And if we have any sense, we'll be joining
them with signs reading:
-
- Who Really Murdered Yitzhak Rabin?
- Reinvestigate Now!
- Arrest Peres
-
- And so on...
-
- Even if the Rabin issue isn't your priority, you've
got Clinton on the podium. Yes, Mr. CFR Bill Clinton, the monster who gave
us the Oslo accords, is coming to town. And everybody injured by his diplomacy
should be on hand to give him a welcome he'll never forget.
-
- Of course, the former residents of Gush Katif
should unite in force to let Clinton know how much he means to them and
how much they appreciate what his "peace" has brought them. But
they'll be too busy sulking and taking charity to make the effort. And
of course, all those protest leaders who have succeeded at nothing will
keep their minions at home. Why show up for a demonstration that may actually
change the course of Israel's downfall?
-
- That leaves us to do the job by ourselves. I will
not recommend any group to help out. Last week, one group advertised that
I would be sponsoring a meeting with a Shabak-connected lawyer. That's
an example of what happens when I trust people too much.
-
- On the other hand, I've received numerous letters
and calls from trusted readers promising to join me at the two Rabin services,
on Nov. 12 in Tel Aviv and Nov. 14 at Rabin's grave on Mount Herzl in Jerusalem.
-
- And that's how it will be for me. On Saturday
night, Nov. 12, 8 PM, I'd be honored if we met at Rabin Square, at the
corner where the Rabin murder was staged. Come bearing signs. For the religious,
there are only two hours between the end of Shabbat and the meeting, so
plan accordingly. Please write me if you'd like to help me and the nation
out.
-
- Other readers are taking matters into their own
hands. Three such committed correspondents want to pitch in for other events.

- Now, back to Israel. On Nov. 15-16, look who is coming
to Netanya to commemorate Rabin. Just look at the list of "people"
who have the nerve to set foot on our land. There is Javier Solana, who
worked with Peres and Beilin, to sell our heritage for Europe's bounty.
There is the CFR's James Wolfensohn, who sold Gush Katif to the World Bank
out of his own pocket. And how can we ever properly welcome Abu Mazen and
Abu Alla to our humble domicile?
-
- Read the Israel Government's announcement. I'm keeping
their childish spelling mistakes intact for effect:
-
- ABU MAZEN AND ABU ALA WILL BE AMONG THE DIGNITORIES WHO

- Israel Government Press Office
- Sunday, 09 October, 2005
-
- [IMRA: The third and most obvious alternative will, out
of political
- correctness, not be mentioned:
-
- "Peace - Dream, Vision or Nightmare". It it
close to certain that Mr.
- Rabin's opposition to a Palestinian state - as expressed
in his last address
- to the Knesset - will remain safely buried in the national
memory hole.]
-
-
- The Chairman of the Palestinian Authority, Mr. Abu Mazen
and Prime Minister

-
- The International Conference at the Netanya Academic
College to mark the

-
- A wonderful lady from Netanya called me to volunteer
to make this conference an event for the ages. If you want to join her
in ruining the party, write her at: grubin@bezeqint.net
-
- The volunteers have asked what they can hand out
at such short notice. Under separate cover I've sent you a picture that
says it all. You will see an ambulance beside Rabin's limousine, the ambulance
Rabin wasn't put in. At the front of the vehicle you will see Shimon Peres
coordinating the next move with Rabin's driver, Menachem Damti.
-
- As for a flyer, print lots of the following:
-
- WE ACCUSE THE ISRAELI GOVERNMENT OF LYING ABOUT THE
RABIN ASSASSINATION
-
- * We charge Rabin's bodyguard Yoram Rubin with perjury
in his testimonies to the Shamgar Commission and at Yigal Amir's trial.
He testified that Amir's bullet entered and penetrated his arm at the elbow,
exiting at the shoulder.
-
- * We charge the pathologist Dr. Yehuda Hiss with medical
malpractice and evidence tampering. While all other doctors including Gutman,
Sneh and Barabash reported that Rabin's spine was shattered causing death,
Hiss removed the wound from Rabin's autopsy.
-
- * We charge Avishai Raviv with perjury at his recent
trial. Raviv testified that Amir never informed him of his murderous intent.
-
- * We charge Shimon Peres with gross misconduct and
dereliction of public service. As prime minister, Peres approved the Shamgar
Commission's conclusions that Rabin was shot twice in the back.
-
- * We charge former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court,
Meir Shamgar with gross judicial misconduct for changing the time of Rabin's
murder from 9:30 PM to 9:50.
-
- * We charge Eitan Haber of evidence destruction based
on his own testimony to the Shamgar Commission that he absconded with Rabin's
possessions at Ichilov Hospital, while later admitting to Kol Ha'ir that
on the same night he cleaned out Rabin's filing cabinets at the Prime Minister's
office.
-
- * We charge Rabin's driver, Menachem Damti with perjury
for testifying to the Shamgar Commission and at Amir's trial, that he drove
to Ichilov Hospital in less than two minutes. The ride actually took 22
minutes.
-
- * We charge Yoram Rubin with perjury for testifying
to the Shamgar Commission that Rabin was shot at 9:50. Yigal Amir was arrested
at 9:30.
-
- * We charge Rubin, Damti and Shamgar with conspiracy
to alter evidence, by coordinating a new, later time of murder.
-
- * We charge Rubin and Damti of being accessories to
the murder of Yitzhak Rabin by deliberately denying him medical treatment.
Note the ambulance beside Rabin's limousine. Why wasn't Rabin offered the
services of trained medical professional waiting ten feet away from him.
-
- * We charge Yoram Rubin with perjury for testifying
to the Shamgar Commission and Amir's judges that Rabin helped him get up
after he was shot and then jumped head-first into the limousine. No such
thing happened.
-
- * We charge Menachem Damti with perjury for testifying
to the Shamgar Commission that he was opening the door for Leah Rabin when
he heard the first shot, and that he reacted by immediately jumping into
the driver's seat, as he was trained to do. Leah Rabin was standing on
the steps nowhere near her husband when Amir shot the blanks and Damti
stayed outside after the shot.
-
- * We charge the chief judge at Yigal Amir's trial,
Edmund Levy, with gross judicial misconduct for dismissing the testimony
of police forensics expert, Inspector Baruch Gladstein, who proved scientifically
that Rabin was shot at 0 range, about half a meter closer than Amir ever
got to Rabin. We charge that Levy acted with full knowledge and intent
in this dismissal of evidence. All previous evidence including Inspector
Gladstein's testimony is found at www.barrychamish.com, as is the defence
summation of attorney Jonathan Goldberg. Within the latter is more than
enough proof that Judge Levy deliberately ignored and dismissed relevant
evidence throughout the trial.
-
- Please, someone, translate the relevant passages of
this message into Hebrew and spread the invitation to the memorial services
far and wide.
-
- As a reminder of the kind of ghastly felon who will be
eulogizing Rabin and soiling our land, I leave you with the following.
-
- The Clinton Legacy
-
- The Progressive Review
- Our Clinton Scandal Index
-
- RECORDS SET
-
- * The only president ever impeached on grounds of personal
malfeasance
-
- * Most number of convictions and guilty pleas by friends
and associates*
-
- * Most number of cabinet officials to come under criminal
investigation
-
- * Most number of witnesses to flee country or refuse
to testify
-
- * Most number of witnesses to die suddenly
-
- * First president sued for sexual harassment.
-
- * First president accused of rape.

-
- * According to our best information, 40 government officials
were indicted or convicted in the wake of Watergate. A reader computes
that there was a total of 31 Reagan era convictions, including 14 because
of Iran-Contra and 16 in the Department of Housing & Urban Development
scandal. 47 individuals and businesses associated with the Clinton machine
were convicted of or pleaded guilty to crimes with 33 of these occurring
during the Clinton administration itself. There were in addition 61 indictments
or misdemeanor charges. 14 persons were imprisoned. A key difference between
the Clinton story and earlier ones was the number of criminals with whom
he was associated before entering the White House.
-
- Using a far looser standard that included resignations,
David R. Simon and D. Stanley Eitzen in Elite Deviance, say that 138 appointees
of the Reagan administration either resigned under an ethical cloud or
were criminally indicted. Curiously Haynes Johnson uses the same figure
but with a different standard in "Sleep-Walking Through History: America
in the Reagan Years: "By the end of his term, 138 administration officials
had been convicted, had been indicted, or had been the subject of official
investigations for official misconduct and/or criminal violations. In terms
of number of officials involved, the record of his administration was the
worst ever."
