It's Only Rabin
By Barry Chamish

The Israelis won't listen. For the past 10 days, since my return from my North American tour, I've been trying to explain that every trick, not short of the murder of Jews, is being used to throw the Jews out of their Gazan homes. The reaction is consistent. From the religious Jews: the Torah is clear that no Jews will be uprooted from their homes in the Land of Israel. From the secular: It's too unbelievable and if it's true, I don't want to know.
 
Not that I'm alone in proving the worst. Makor Rishon has published that the author of Sharon's pullout plan, Dov Weisglas, will be a partner in a giant casino to be built on the evacuated Gazan territory. And how long have I been exposing the Sharon-Weisglas-Arafat casino partnership? Finally, it is getting wider exposure, yet the Israelis aren't accepting this mafia motive for the planned pullout.
 
Over and over I'm told the same thing: Don't get too deep, stick with Rabin. It's the only scandal you've uncovered that most Israelis can understand, or even care about.
 
So let's try again. I have a new witness and more powerful documentation to present. I am sending the documents under separate cover, since people are afraid to open attachments and most sites I'm on filter them out.
 
Another Witness Steps Forward
 
He is Shmuel Arad's brother-in-law. To put his testimony into context, I must present testimony from my last article again:
 
Steve of middleeastfacts.com called to inform me that he had interviewed a very important witness who I should meet. And very important he was. His name was Eli and he was the IDF officer responsible for military security at the rally where Rabin was murdered. He had escaped his suspicions in Toronto. We drove to a restaurant to talk but he would not leave the car until he had told his story. Chain-smoking, the young and athletic Israeli related the following:
 
"I was the IDF officer in charge of security for the Tel Aviv area. Two days before the rally, all the security officers of the police and Shabak met in north Tel Aviv. I felt something was wrong right away. There was going to be a gathering of 150,000 people at a most sensitive moment and the meeting was open. Anyone could have come in. And the attitude of the meeting was all wrong. It was jovial. The police displayed an aerial photo of the City Hall square and instead of pinpointing problem areas, the meeting just discussed what a great photo it was.
 
"The Shabak controlled the security for the rally and barely gave the police any duties. But more shocking, they gave me nothing to do. They made it plain by ignoring me, that they just didn't want the army there. I left the meeting and decided I'd send a jeep and crew backstage anyway.
 
"I ordered the jeep to park near the stairs where Rabin was supposed to descend and then had a look around. It was at about 8:00 PM, just before the rally was to begin that I saw a reserve officer from my unit coming down the stairs from the stage. He had a security pin on his shirt but I didn't issue it to him. I asked him, 'What are you doing here? I didn't call you here.' He answered that he came of his own volition. I asked him, 'Who issued you the security pass?' and he didn't answer me. Something wasn't right and I decided to inspect the stage myself.
 
"I walked up the stairs with my gun in its holster. No one stopped me and there was no metal detector anywhere. On the stage I saw Benny Lahav, he was the Shabak's personnel officer and he was busy shining a flashlight at apartment windows opposite the square. That wasn't his duty. He was supposed to be coordinating his forces, not playing with a flashlight. I walked up to him and pointed to my gun, saying, 'I could kill Rabin if I wanted to.' He answered, 'Why would you do that?' I replied, 'How did I get a gun on this stage without being stopped?' He ignored the question and went back to shining his flashlight off buildings.
 
"I stayed until the rally ended and decided I was no longer needed. I ordered my jeep crew to stay backstage until everyone had left and took a bus home. Not ten minutes later, the crew radioed me that something happened backstage and Rabin may have been hurt. But at that moment I saw Rabin's limousine led by a squad car approaching Dizengoff Street. I assumed he was headed to a party in Herzlia Pituach and that everything was alright.
 
"Later, when I heard he was murdered, nothing made sense. What was Rabin's car doing so far from Ichilov Hospital? If he was shot, why was only one squad car accompanying him?
 
"The next day, I went to my base and expected, at a minimum, to be dressed down, and more likely, to be stripped of my rank. Rabin was murdered on my watch and I knew I was going to be investigated for dereliction of duty. But my commander, Col. Shmuel Arad, didn't call me. In fact, he never asked what happened that night. And when the Shamgar Commission convened, I expected to be called to testify about military security at the rally. But I never was and I still don't know why.
 
"I knew I could have done better if I was a bit smarter and I left for Toronto to sort out my life. I was set up to fail and I strongly suspected it was by the real murderers. Your book woke me up and that's why I wanted to talk to you."
 
Back To The New Testimony
 
It is from another Eli, who I'll call Eli G. He lives in Ramat Gan, is retired, is a longtime Likud member and was Shmuel Arad's brother-in-law. He joined me at my apartment.
 
"Shmuel was commander of the Pikud Ha Oref (the IDF's urban security division) on the night of the Rabin murder. He was the direct superior of the witness in Toronto you quoted.
 
"Shmuel never talked about the fact that he was the highest ranking IDF officer responsible for security in Tel Aviv on the night of the assassination. But he never rose in rank after that night. We all that it was because his father was a legendary Irgun fighter and the IDF had a policy to keep such families away from the top. Now I understand that there may have been more to his non-advancement.
 
"Nonetheless, he felt advancement would be denied him for good, so he quit the army and shortly after ran for mayor of Haifa. He was leading all the polls but just prior to the elections, a third party candidate quit and threw his support behind the Labor candidate. It was a dirty deal and it cost Shmuel the election.
 
"He was totally discouraged and took a long leave of absence from the country abroad. Last year he returned, arriving home on a Friday. He called me and we arranged a get-together with our families the next day. The next morning his wife called to announce that Shmuel was dead. His heart just stopped.
 
"It didn't make sense. He was in his early 50s and completely healthy. One day back in the country and he dies? Then you reminded me that he was the IDF officer in charge of Tel Aviv on the night of the Rabin murder. Strange things are happening in the country and I don't dismiss the possibility that this was one of them.
 
"Your witness was right in his suspicions. Since Shmuel was in charge of military security when Rabin was murdered, why wasn't he questioned by the polic? Of course, he should have been. He must have had relevant information."
 
The Shabak Takes Over The Investigation
 
If the police missed questioning vital witnesses, then they were remiss in their duties or told to be remiss. The law in Israel is clear: In all cases of non-military murder, Israel Police is solely responsible for investigations. The Shabak (General Security Services) has no legal role in such criminal investigations. Yet for Rabin, both the Shabak and Israel Police broke the law. In the case of the police, the following attachments prove they did so most reluctantly.
 
Attachment One
 
If you are not a Hebrew reader, the first two attachments will be lost on you. If you are, or know someone who is, you are now witness to a strange legal aberration. For best viewing, zoom in 170%. This is an announcement from the head of the Criminal Investigations Division of Israel Police, explaining that responsibility for the investigation of the Rabin assassination had been switched from Tel Aviv district police to his division. The document begins with a list of the detectives and investigators assigned to the case. Then the subject of the memo is given: Investigation Team Of The Murder Of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin.
 
Clause 1. announces the switch in investigation teams beginning 12/11/95. Clause 2. begins the illegalities. It reads, "On 4/11/95 at Kings Of Israel Square, Prime Minister Rabin was murdered as he walked between the rally stage and his car by one Yigal Amir."
 
Now, this supposition of guilt by the police is blatantly illegal. The police cannot announce the murderer's name before he is convicted, let alone charged.
 
End Attachment One, Continue Attachment Two
 
Clause 3. Goals Of The Investigation
 
a. To investigate if the murderer acted alone or with the complicity of others.
 
Again the police use the word "murderer" to describe Amir and not "suspect." They have already convicted him. And it's reasonable to assume that the author of the memo, as head of the Criminal Investigations Division, knew what he was doing wrong.
 
b. To investigate who was behind the murder.
 
Now what does this mean? If Amir was a lone gunman, why is there this certainty that someone else was behind him?
 
c. To investigate and gather evidence against all those involved. Thus,to investigate all claims against far Right organizations.
 
The investigation is now focused on one group and one group only. No other leads are to be followed. Now who would lead such a cockeyed investigation? Look closely at Clause 4. and send it out widely.
 
Clause 4. Methodology
 
a. Evidence gathering and intelligence are to be conducted in cooperation with the Shabak and those under its responsibility.
 
You read it right. An illegal investigation conducted by the Shabak superceded the legal police investigation. It's this kind of severe technicality that gets cases thrown out of court in any fair judicial system. Read it again. The Shabak, which murdered Rabin, is now investigating the murder.
 
Attachment Three
 
The Shamgar Commission determined that Rabin was shot twice in the back. Central to my thesis is my contention that Rabin was shot a third time, from the front. And central to my claim that Shimon Peres organized the murder was his knowledge of that third shot. In my lectures, I show Peres on film stating that, "Three bullets pierced Rabin's body and the songsheet." The songsheet was in his front jacket pocket, thus Peres admits that Rabin was shot from the front, an act Amir could not have committed.
 
The problem is, Peres became prime minister and accepted the Shamgar Commission's finding that Rabin was shot twice in the back...WHEN HE KNEW THE TRUTH. And that makes Peres, head of the coverup.
 
I also note that 90 minutes after Rabin was declared dead, Peres conducted a cabinet meeting during which he appointed Rabin's personal bodyguard, Yoram Rubin, his own personal bodyguard. Now, if there was one person in the world Peres should not have appointed to guard him, it was Rubin, based on his wonderful protection of Rabin that evening.
 
But since Rubin was the actual shooter of Rabin, Peres chose to reward him.
 
At that same cabinet meeting, Peres described how Rabin was murdered. Do not forget that Peres saw Rabin's body barely two hours before. Now open the attachment and look where Peres is pointing to. That, he explained to the world, was where the fatal bullet penetrated Rabin's body...FROM THE FRONT.
 
end
 
Of interest. I copied my English language video Who Murdered Yitzhak Rabin to sell at my lecture venues. It's 2 1/2 hours long and really impressive. I now have NTSC copies if anyone would like to order.
 
I'll be putting together a new book. In the meantime, as usual, you can order my English books, Who Murdered Yitzhak Rabin, Israel Betrayed, The Last Days Of Israel and Save Israel! by writing me at chamish@netvision.net.il
