	CNN.com - Widow of assassinated Israeli leader dies of cancer - November 12, 2000
		Rabin, 72, had been the torchbearer for her husband's Israeli-Palestinian peace policies since he was shot to death in 1995 by a Jewish ultra-conservative who opposed the late prime minister's peacemaking efforts.
		Rabin's harshest critics were the supporters of hardline leader Benjamin Netanyahu, whom she accused of fanning the hatred that led to her husband's murder at a Tel Aviv peace rally.
		She was born Leah Schlossberg on April 8, 1928 to well-to-do parents in Koenigsberg, a town in what was then Germany and later became part of Russia.

		Rabin, a homemaker-turned-peace campaigner, was feted abroad as an advocate of Israeli-Arab coexistence but was shunned by some in Israel as a divisive figure.
		Rabin's harshest critics were the supporters of hardline leader Benjamin Netanyahu, whom she accused of fanning the hatred that led to her husband's death murder at a Tel Aviv peace rally.

		Netanyahu responded by accusing Leah Rabin of "character assassination." He said that Rabin had been killed by a madman from Israel's lunatic fringe and it was "cynical incitement" to blame Likud supporters for the murder.
		In a series of radio and television interviews Tuesday, Leah Rabin laid the blame for the climate in which the assassination was carried out on Netanyahu and rightist lawmakers who gave violent speeches and did nothing to stop incitement against her husband at rallies.
		Leah Rabin said she had wanted to avoid shaking hands with Netanyahu at the funeral in Jerusalem Monday, but changed her mind at the last minute.

	The Conspiracy to Kill Yitzhak Rabin?
		A week after Rabin was killed, on November 12, journalist Amnon Abramovich revealed on Israel TV that Eyal was set up by the Shabak to provoke and trap right wing radicals and its leader, Avishai Raviv was an agent whose code name was "Champagne", referring to the bubbles of incitement he raised.
		The medical reports indicated that Rabin was killed by a bullet fired from a gun against his flesh- not from five feet away.
		While Rabin was being operated on at Ichilov Hospital, for reasons unexplained to this day, Haber rifled through his suit and shirt pockets looking for something and pulled out the songsheet Rabin had held at the rally.

		After Rabin's death, there were claims of a "deposit" that the prime minister supposedly left with the American Secretary of State, about a promise of a full Israeli withdrawal from the Golan Heights that was not kept.
		Rabin demanded of the Syrians withdrawal in stages, with most of the demand being to carry out what he called "full peace" even at the beginning of the process, after "a preliminary withdrawal." Only after that, said Rabin, would Israel carry out the rest of the withdrawal from the Golan Heights.
