Is Israel Ready for the Truth?
SHOCKING REVEAL: Rabin Assassination Cover-Up Exposed? Leaked Doc Ignites Conspiracy Firestorm!
30 Years Later, a Medical Leak Fuels Explosive Claims of Shin Bet Involvement and Hidden Truths
Thirty years after the assassination of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin z"l, a newly leaked medical document from Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center (Ichilov) has reignited questions surrounding the traumatic event.
Dated October 15, 2025, the document, a response to a medical information request regarding Rabin’s death. The document rejects the request of an X-ray copy stating:"It is not public property".
Rabin was assassinated on November 4, 1995, at the end of a peace rally in Tel Aviv’s Kings of Israel Square. Yigal Amir, a far-right Jewish law student, was arrested at the scene and confessed. However, numerous conspiracy theories have since emerged, many pointing to the Shin Bet (Israel’s Security Agency), the organization responsible for VIP protection.
A central theory claims Rabin was killed by the Shin Bet to conceal severe security lapses. According to this narrative, Amir served as a “patsy,” and the real killer collaborated with the agency. Key claims include:
- No Blood at the Scene: Witnesses reported seeing no blood after the shooting, and the drive to the hospital (minutes away) took an unusually long time instead of 2 minutes.
- Gunpowder Residue: Police reports noted gunpowder residue on Rabin’s body and clothes, suggesting point-blank range, yet Amir fired from a distance.
- Avishai Raviv’s Involvement: Shin Bet agent Avishai Raviv (code name “Champagne”) incited far-right extremists, including Amir, against Rabin, organizing rituals where he was branded a “traitor.” Benjamin Netanyahu, then opposition leader, was also accused of similar incitement.
- Barry Chamish and Other Theories: Author Barry Chamish alleged the assassination was planned by Shimon Peres and the Shin Bet to thwart peace or undermine the right wing. Other theories suggest the bullets were blanks, and Rabin was killed in the car or hospital.
Surveys indicate these theories remain popular: a 2018 poll found only 60% of Israelis believe Amir acted alone, with 50% of right-wing respondents skeptical. In recent years, politicians like Bezalel Smotrich have accused the Shin Bet of inciting against the right.
The new document raises eyebrows with the absence of toxicology tests and additional X-rays. Did the Shin Bet cover up security failures? Was the assassination politically motivated? The Shamgar Commission dismissed these theories, but doubts persist, even among Rabin's own family. As journalist Dan Ephron wrote in "Killing a King", these theories continue to shape Israeli politics.
