I'll say more on November 4, the Western calendar 15th anniversary of Yitzhak Rabin's assassination, but Israeli President Shimon Peres, Rabin's longtime rival/partner in power, spoke today on the 15th anniversary using the Hebrew calendar.
If one has to choose the moment when the hopes of the Oslo Agreements began to expire, when the peace process began its downward spiral, it was surely the Rabin assassination. It's not the only cause or the sufficient cause, but it was the first pebble in what would become an avalanche.
I'll say more on the 4th.
