Reflections on the murder of Yitzhak Rabin

Article Abstract:

The assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin by Yigal Amir reveals the self-perpetuating nature of hatred and signals that Jews must work to break this cycle of hate. Some could not believe that a Jew could kill another Jew. This killing is an escalation of the hatred applied to Palestinian terrorists and then to all Palestinians. Israelis must renew their commitment to peace and to democratic principles and not use hatred based on Jewish suffering to prompt more violence.

Article Abstract:

The ethnic conflict in Rwanda leading to the massacre in 1994 was based on history that had been mythologized by the bureaucracy using propaganda to increase the conflict and remove Tuutsi from land and political positions. There was a history of military conflicts between the Tuutsi and the Hutu, who were in power in 1994, and a high concentration of Tuutsi in neighboring nations, supporting the propaganda.
