Yitzhak Rabin and the Case for Courage
Late at night on November 4, 1995, while leaving a huge rally in Tel Aviv, moments after leading the crowd in singing the “Song of Peace”—“Don’t say the day will come; bring the day!”—Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was shot by a young Israeli bitterly opposed to the peace process with the Palestinians.Although Rabin and I worked together for less than three years, we built a close working relationship and a deep friendship.
