The annual “RabinFest” in memory of the assassinated Prime Minister is in high gear
Noa Rotman, a granddaughter of assassinated Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin, posted a message on Facebook this week that “perhaps there will be a holiday after the murder of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.”
She later explained that her posting simply was “black humor,” according to Israel’s Hebrew-language Maariv website.
Rotman’s mention of murder was in reply to a question if there is a holiday on the anniversary of the death of Rabin, which is being marked this week.
Rotman, taken aback by a reply that asked her “what is your intention” concerning the suggested holiday after Netanyahu us killed, wrote:
Whoa! Stop. Can I ask you a question? Is this worth an item? 20 years after the murder? It was black humor in the specific context of the reaction to a status.
If all you are asking from me is a reaction…every status that I wrote is in appeasement. Have a good and quiet work for all of us, Allah willing [with] a bit more important items than secondary ones.
The “RabinFest” media have ignored the article by Maariv, and if it remains buried, government prosecutors don’t have to go through the motions of investigating Rabin’s granddaughter for incitement for murder, contrary to an immediate criminal probe that would have been sprung into action if a right-winger had written, God forbid, that maybe there will be a holiday after the murder of a leftist leader.
