ISRAEL: YITZHAK RABIN REMEMBERED

(17 May 1999) English/Nat As Israeli elections take place on Monday, many are remembering assassinated Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. Rabin was killed by an ultra-nationalist Jew, three-and-a-half years ago. Rabin had begun the process of making peace with the Palestinians, which upset many extreme right-wingers who are against reconciliation. His death brought about elections that saw the triumph of the right-wing Likud government. Now, many of his old supporters hope the tide will turn back to the direction Rabin was heading, if Labour Party leader, Ehud Barak wins Monday's election. Polls are suggesting Barak has the lead in the race against ruling Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Leah Rabin, wife of the assassinated prime minister, Yitzhak Rabin, was confident of Barak's victory as she cast her vote in Israel's general election on Monday. The spectre of political violence still traumatizes many Israelis who remember Rabin's tragic assassination in Tel Aviv. UPSOUND: (English) "I think I feel good. I think I have reason to feel good."
