MK Michal Shir (Likud) condemned Dr Moti Kedar's remarks that Yigal Amir did not murder Yitzhak Rabin.

"There are issues in the Israeli public that are never, and never will be, disputed. Rabin's murder is one of them. It's an open and painful wound in the history of the State of Israel," said Shir.

"There are moments when there must be a limit and one of those moments is now. I disgustingly condemn the words of Professor Mordechai Kedar. This is not the way of the Right. This is not the way of the Likud movement."
