Netanyahu denounces incitement toward politicians at Rabin memorial

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the murder of prime minister Yitzhak Rabin requires a “condemnation of violence from whatever the source, especially if that violence is directed at public leaders.”

“The shocking murder has put us to a fundamental test of the danger of self-destruction and the destruction of democracy, and we are absolutely committed to the basic rule of democracy,” Netanyahu says at the state memorial marking the 22nd Hebrew anniversary of Rabin’s assassination.
