An insider's perspective on the life and influence of Israel's
first native-born prime minister, his bold peace initiatives, and
his tragic assassination More than two decades have passed since
prime minister Yitzhak Rabin's assassination in 1995, yet he
remains an unusually intriguing and admired modern leader. A
native-born Israeli, Rabin became an inextricable part of his
nation's pre-state history and subsequent evolution. This revealing
account of his life, character, and contributions draws not only on
original research but also on the author's recollections as one of
Rabin's closest aides. An awkward politician who became a
statesman, a soldier who became a peacemaker, Rabin is best
remembered for his valiant efforts to resolve the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict and for the Oslo Accords. Itamar
Rabinovich provides extraordinary new insights into Rabin's
relationships with powerful leaders including Bill Clinton,
Jordan's King Hussein, and Henry Kissinger, his desire for an
Israeli-Syrian peace plan, and the political developments that
shaped his tenure. The author also assesses the repercussions of
Rabin's murder: Netanyahu's ensuing election and the rise of
Israel's radical right wing.
