At Barak party launch, Rabin’s granddaughter says hope is possible
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleNoa Rothman, the granddaughter of slain prime minister Yitzhak Rabin, speaks at the official launch event of Ehud Barak’s new Israel Democratic Party, saying she “joined this journey to save the country we love and we are proud of from disappearing and being destroyed.”
“For too long they have told us that things cannot be changed. That everyone is corrupt,” says the IDP candidate to the sweltering crowd packed into Tel Aviv’s Kuli Alma bar.
“They are wrong. There is hope. It’s possible to fix it. It’s possible to set borders. It’s possible to provide our children with a hope for the future. It’s possible,” she says.
