By every single measure
It produced nothing but terror - no peace at all.
Exactly what was Rabin’s accomplishment ?

Rabin...that is the real truth.

His legacy brought untold misery to Israel.

He along with that fat slob Sharon brought misery that is evident to this day.

Terror and bombing from our piss partners.

The attendees of this piss rally were paid NGO..THEY TEPRESENT NO ONE.

I want to ask the author of the note: Do you know that when bombs fall in Israel from Hamas,Hezbollah or other enemies also fall in muslim,christian,druze and bedouin communities too???
Is the right moment to unify all the Israel community forces against the common enemy.....and this is possible in peace with all the leaders.
That's a thing that the right and the fanatic religious couldn't do.

Begin was the best.

Let us first be clear what the late Mr. Rabin advocated:

1. Jerusalem shall remain a single city and the capital city of the Jewish people. Indeed, Jerusame would include its suburbs of Giv'at Zeev and Ma'leh Adumim.

2. All Jewish settlement blocs, including Gush Katif in Gaza, shall be incorporated into the State of Israel.

3. The Jordan Valley, in the widest meaning of the term, shall continue to be part of the State of Israel.

4. There shall be a Palestinian Arab entity, certainly not a state, that will be totally demilitarized, whose skies shall be under Israel's control as well as all of its borders and all of its border passes: land, sea and air.

The above was stated in Rabin's last speech at the Knesset, on 5 October 1995 (Google for it).

Hence, I ask, why misrepresent Rabin after his death, when he can not respond to those advancing their own views on his dead body....??!!

Israeli Jews would do well to avoid the temptation of power sharing. It would not turn out well for the Jews.

Gantz is himself a lackluster character whose military career indicates he preferred political expediency over operational excellence.

Israel's founding generation of political and military leadership will prove very hard to match and its offspring, as represented by Mssrs Netanyahu and Gantz, makes this point.

Israel's founders were bold, daring, renegades who had no qualms about giving the world the finger. This current generation of leadership, perhaps mirroring modern Israeli society... not so much.

Peace with the PLO is a lie.

Oslo was a trojan horse.

Arafat and 40,000 PLO terrorists came to Judea & Samaria to terrorize, not to make peace.

Reset to pre-Oslo status quo is required for peace to be possible again.

"to fill the shoes of the former leader"

Benny Gantz would need first of all CRIMINAL ENERGY, which he has not.

Rabin and Barak brought the 2nd Intifada on your heads. And now you want to repeat that catastophe by letting this left-wing loon into power. Good luck. You'll be as screwed as we will be if Corbyn gets elected.

unfortunately for him, he cannot given his nationality.
if you want to know more about the trilateral commission, read
my post under the associated press article on impeachment
in the commentary section.

Which Rabin does Ganz want to be crowned as Rabin's successor? The Rabin pushed in his back to sign the 13th of September 1993 the Oslo Accords? Or the Rabin who gave the following interview to the Belgian TV, with as question: "Do you consider the creation of a separate Palestinian State possible and should Israel eventually start negotiations with the PLO?" Rabin replied: "As I said, the so-called PLO will never be part for negotiations. It does not mean that Israel does not see that there is a Palestinian issue. We believe that the Palestinian issue can and should be solved in a context of peace that will be negotiated between Israel and Jordan. With Jordan we have got borders, south of the Dead Sea, till the Golf of Aqaba, north of the West Bank along the Beit Shean Valley and the Jordan Valley. Therefore, in a solution, a peace solution between Jordan and Israel, I believe that the Palestinian issue can be solved in a way that the Palestinian will find their right to express their special identity, but, it will never be through the so-called PLO or through a third independent state. Because a third independent state between Jordan and Israel cannot solve the Palestinian issue and will serve as a time bomb against Jordan as well as against Israel".

gantz should deal with israel's enemies head on and not languish in idolizing rabin.

based on his gaza performance, israel is in trouble wiht the current leadership-big trouble.

flood.
"God shall help me" he proclaimed, when neighbors came to ask him to evacuate.
'God shall help me" he exclaimed when they came in a boat to take him away from the flooded land.
"God shall look out for me" he insisted when the chopper offered to lift him from the roof of his submerged house.
Then he drowned.
"Why haven't you helped me?!" he accused God, when facing the Creator
'Haven't I?
I've sent you people, boats, helicopters to save you and what have you done?!"
....."I have given you an excellent PM, Netanyahu, I have given you a fantastic US President, Mr.Trump and what have YOU done with it?"

If it aint broke ,don't fix it ...( and it aint broke ! ) .

Prime Minister Netanyahu is like a great classic orchestral conductor, he makes it all look so deceptively easy and fluent ,but when you get up in front af an orchestra with 70 plus hostile and unfriendly faces staring back at you willing you to mess up ,you quickly discover it aint as easy as it appears ,and Bibi makes it all look so easy .By the way ,he is not perfect but he is doing a fine job.

All who curse the Haredim for their messianism, are working quickly to build a new messiah with the ashes, scent and aura of Rabin.

They all forget that Oslo, Rabin's masterpiece, was the brainchild of one of the best black sorcerers in Jewish history: Yossi Beilin, who must be about to die laughing in his abode, and rightly so, because he knows that without him there will be no magic and the new Golem will not work.

What could go wrong with having a failed general and failed entrepreneur as Israel's next P.M.? Especially a disastrous leftist determined to make more insane concessions to our mortal "Palestinian" foes, which are the root cause of virtually all Israel's worst problems.

and the Diaspora - and nobody else.

A clear majority of Israel & the Diaspora continue to recognize Rabin's eternal contributions to Israel & Jewish history, including the creation of the modern IDF and the 6 Day War victories.

The loud haters, trolls, and bots posting here & elsewhere cannot offer anything constructive... only more anger, racism, fake news, and toxicity.

Mr. Barnea:

A splendid editorial worthy of an old fox who has fought many battles.

A column well written, objective, dispassionate, sometimes even skeptical and brimming with the best British irony. Among your abundant good phrases I keep the following:

"Ganz used the word 'peace' more times that evening than in his whole political career."

guide the nation. May He give them His wisdom to do His will since the protection under His wings is the best protection.
