Thanks for your insight 23 hour old account.

No u.

Rabin was not considering peace though. He was considering how to string Palestinians along with a bad deal and keep the Apartheid in place. Rabin was selling the liberal-Zionist illusion of a peace process.

Netanyahu on the other hand tries to do the same thing but destroys Israels reputation in the process.

With someone like Rabin, Palestinians would be living under the same conditions but Saudi etc would have normalized with Israel.

Rabin knew that he could not do what Netanyahu is doing or he would destroy the Apartheids state.

+972 magazine - The myth of Rabin the peacemaker

These nuances, however, do not compensate for the fundamental problem with the way Rabin is revered in Israel and abroad. His persona as a “warrior-turned-peacemaker” is almost exclusively centered on the final four years of his life, five decades of which were defined by hawkish and militaristic views (Shimon Peres, Rabin’s rival-turned-ally, eventually received the same idolizing treatment). This cult of personality, dotingly crafted by the Zionist left in Israel and liberal Zionists in the United States, has particularly relied on a counterfactual argument: that had he not been killed, Rabin might have helped to bring about a two-state solution.

Ironically, the first person to dispute that narrative may have been Rabin himself. The words “Palestinian state” do not appear in the accords he signed, a fact that he and other Israeli officials were careful to ensure. A month before his assassination, Rabin told the Knesset that his vision was to give Palestinians “an entity which is less than a state” — a precedent to the “state-minus” advocated today by Netanyahu and outlined in Trump’s “Deal of the Century.” Rabin also insisted that the Jordan Valley would remain Israel’s “security border” — the very plan that drew international outcry this year, when Netanyahu pledged to formally annex the area.

It is not though. Columbia is probably the most genocidal pro Israel university of them all. Them getting the funding pulled is hillarious.

Pump those numbers down. Those are rookie numbers.

When NYT is swapping the narrative you know what time it is. TheHill was a month ahead ;)

Jerboa. From the Lemmy devs and works great.
