At a ceremony Tuesday night in memory of slain Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin, President Shimon Peres said that Rabin's murder was an “unforgivable and unerasable crime. We cannot allow the passage of time or our weariness to force us from our course. On this memorial day we must fight against forgetfulness, which is the enemy of man and democracy,” Peres said.
Speaking at the memorial, Yitzchak Rabin's son Yuval demanded that the right stop using expressions such as “the crimes of Oslo” and “the Oslo tragedy” to describe the aftermath of Rabin's Oslo Accords, in which hundreds of Jews were killed and injured in the second intifada. Yuval Rabin said that his greatest wish was to ensure that everyone realize that his father had acted for what he believed was the good of the country and the Israeli nation.
