    On Wednesday, November 5, 2014 (12 Heshvan on the Jewish calendar), Israel marks the 19th anniversary of the assassination of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin on November 4, 1995.

    President Reuven Rivlin: "For me Rabin’s legacy is one of leadership, transformative leadership, of standing bravely in the face of difficult decisions. On the side of his commitment to peace, Rabin, did not wait idly for the Israel 'after peace'. He did not wait for a peace that would solve all problems once and for all. Instead, he was brave enough to tackle Israel's problems in the here and now."
