The entire world saw those hijacked planes crashing into the WTC towers on 9-11.  Yet there are conspiracy nuts (one of whom is the main inventor of the Rabin assassination conspiracy "theory," at least when he is not busy publishing his articles on Neo-Nazi Holocaust Denial web sites) who insist that the collapse of the WTC towers was NOT caused by the exploding planes, or even claim that no planes at all crashed into the WTC.  The entire world saw Yigal Amir on the tape shoot Rabin, as did all the eyewitnesses, and Amir readily confirms he shot Rabin with live bullets.  I am reminded of that old Richard Pryor quip when I read the conspiracy "theories" about the assassination - "Who you gonna believe, me or your lying eyes?"

Does Fendel seriously mean to argue that if Lincoln and Julius Caesar were assassinated, this proves that Yigal Amir is innocent of killing Rabin?

The blog entries that follow below must be read to make sense of this posting here.  So we agree that the "20 minute car trip to the hospital" was not 20 minutes and was based on inaccurate recordings of times by those involved.  So what?

1.  None of the MDs who at first thought Rabin was struck by three bullets or struck from the front think so today.  They themselves think their initial impression was wrong, and accept the findings of the Shamgar Commission.  Why does Fendel doubt their word today?  There was no third bullet wound at all. Rabin's spine was NOT sliced by the bullet. These "claims" were at best early innocent suspicions that turned out to be wrong and today are conspiracist misrepresentations, similar to falsehoods in the 9-11 conspiracy "theories." 

2.  Initial hospital reports made in the emergency room often bear little resemblance to actual final reports, especially when surgery is involved.

3.  I do not know if Miriam Oren thinks today Rabin was unhurt by the gunfire of Amir.  Maybe someone should ask her.  In any case, the simple fact of the matter is that he WAS.  So she was wrong.  The other eyewitnesses all saw things differently.  Did Oren also not see the planes crashing into the WTC on 9-11?

4.  UPDATE:  A security man checked the back seat of the car, closed the "mysteriously closing door" but did not ride with Rabin in the car's back seat on the way to the hospital.  No mystery!  No conspiracy!

5.  At the Columbine school shooting, the shooting in Virginia Tech, and at many others people thought they were hearing blanks because real bullets being fired do not sound like what people imagine.  Tell me, if it is now discovered that someone yelled "Felafel" close to the scene of the shooting, would this prove that Amir had fired felafel at Rabin?

6.  People injured by gunfire often continue to take steps and walk. This can confuse people like Miriam Oren and Hillel Fendel.

7.  Sneh himself says he was wrong in his earlier impression of the wounds.  He believes the Shamgar Commission report.  Why does Fendel not believe him today?

8.  Haber does not say that he destroyed evidence.  Neither does the Shamgar report.  Fendel says that.

9.  Fendel is not an expert on gunpowder residue.  The Shamgar Commission spoke with numerous experts.  They saw nothing to suggest Amir did NOT shoot Rabin.  Who is Fendel to second guess them?

10.  The best way to discredit Israel National News, to discredit the entire Israeli Right, and to ensure that the policies of the Israeli Left continue to be implemented is to try to recruit the "Right" into pursuing mindless conspiracy nonsense, chasing imaginary conspiracies for which not a single scrap of real evidence exists.  None of Fendel's "questions" constitute evidence.  At best they are his ponderings and conjectures.

11.  Here is a question of my own.  How is it that Fendel believes anything (and everything?) he is told by David Rutstein?  Does he know who and what Rutstein is?  Why does he consider Rutstein more credible than Shamgar?
