sam goldenwood ,   lalaland   (11.10.08)
i really liked the ceremony and i agree that the ambience was one of peace and love
2. You missed everything

You missed the bashing of the right, the hatefest it has turned into.. its like a woodstock of hate for the settlers. I love how rabin's memorial is always about peace, but kahane's is about hate.. why is that ? kahane wanted peace! he just had different ways of doing it.. rabin's way was to kick out the settlers, kahane wanted to transfer the arabs..

4. Like woodstock?
Jayjay ,   Israel   (11.10.08)
Sorry, but your view is very naive. You werent even alive during Woodstock, so how would you know to compare? THis crowd are a pack of self righteous greedy fools and dont represent the majority of the country. These apparent peaceful leftists at Rabin square ignore the facts that the Arabs want us dead. They are oblivious as to what goes on in their own country and are too busy making money and sipping their lattes at Tel Aviv cafe's, while ignoring the facts that missiles are reigning down on Sderot and Palastinians are killing jews! The PA Charter clearly states Israels destruction, yet this Oslo crowd still support empowering our enemies. On the outside they call for peace, but their only solution is to appease and give our land to Arabs that want us all dead...........This isnt going to work! Oslo and ceding of Gazza is a perfect example!
5. Europeans....
Boaz ,   Haifa   (11.10.08)
Worse than americans...
6. Unpopular PM
Sane Jew ,   Tel Aviv   (11.11.08)
Whilst Rabin's murder was horrific, he was just another unpopular politician who had he not have been murdered would have subsequently lost the election and gone down in history as a failure. Even after his murder and all of the artificial 'peace' hype and candle lighting the Labour party and Shimon Peres still lost the election. This whole industry is posthumous nonsense. I remember I was there.
7. Article

Although I do not know a whole lot about the teamsters union, I still react to such and upon reading the last name Hoffa. Who knows though maybe this is a new era. However I still have to ask why were they there?

Most Israelis are right in the middle, and most can relate to this. Wish I could have been there.
