Call The Jewish News 354-5959 er Eyal Arad and two purported members of the Political Direc- torate, Knesset members Michael Eitan and Hanan Po- rat, also voiced regrets. The film shows signature TV news footage from that period — demonstrators chanting "Ra- bin is a traitor/murderer," and then-opposition leaders Mr. Ne- tanyahu, Ariel Sharon, Knesset Member Rehavam Ze'evi and others firing up the crowds. The infamous photo distor- tions of Mr. Rabin as an SS of- ficer are shown, but so are the heretofore unseen photomon- tages of Mr. Rabin as a dog. The camera pans across numerous demonstrators leaping up and down, shouting, "Death to Ra- bin," and burning posters that read, 'The Traitor," with a bulls- eye over Mr. Rabin's face. Asked about the film's con- tention that the Political Direc- torate, with Mr. Netanyahu's participation, guided the activ- ities of the Action Headquarters, Mr. Netanyahu's spokesman Shai Bazak said: "Demonstrations in a democ- ratic country are legitimate, but they must not cross the line be- tween legitimate protest and vi- olence or incitement to violence. The prime minister made this clear, time and again, in the months before the assassina- tion. "At many events he called on the public to avoid expressions or actions that could encourage violence." The film, however, never shows this. It does show Mr. Ne- tanyahu at a mass rally in Jerusalem pausing in his speech for a few moments as the shouts of "Rabin is a traitor" grow ex- tremely loud, then continuing with his attack on the Rabin government and Yassir Arafat. Asked about this, Mr. Bazak replied: "Many times he told [protesters] to stop [such chants], that this wasn't right. Really, enough of this. "The people showed in the last election that they don't ac- cept this attempt to incite against Netanyahu, to silence him," Mr. Bazak added. "Evi- dently, some journalists still haven't learned this." In the film, Mr. Sharon, now minister of infrastructure, is quoted from an interview he gave to the Orthodox newspaper Hashavua as reportedly saying, `The Rabin government is worse than the Judenrat." Mr. Sharon's spokesman, Ra'anan Gissin, said Mr. Sharon did not want to discuss the issue. "The whole subject is painful for him. Mr. Rabin was a close friend of his," Mr. Gissin ex- plained. At a news conference after a screening in Jerusalem, Mr. Karpin said, "The facts I pre- sented speak for themselves. I'm a journalist, and my only goal was to make a good documen- tary." However, executive producer and financier David Mosevics said he wanted to show that Mr. Netanyahu, Mr. Hanegbi and some other current leaders of the government "bear moral and public responsibility for the as- sassination." Clearly the film has a mes- sage. "When the Action Head- quarters ended its incitement campaign, it put all of its efforts into Binyamin Netanyahu's elec- tion campaign," the narrator says. The documentary shows Action Headquarters members putting up Netanyahu election posters. In the film, Geula Amir, Yigal Amir's extremely religious moth- er, says, "Gali [Yigal] was just the messenger" of God's will. She uses gematria, or Kabbalistic nu- merology, to "prove" that a pas- sage in the Book of Job foretells the advent of "llamas, Islamic Jihad, the left — Labor, Meretz, Rabin." She says the passage shows that Mr. Rabin "will die, like this is his destiny." Speaking from his jail cell, Yi- gal Amir explains how he thinks Mr. Netanyahu differs from Mr. Rabin. "Look, it's a choice be- tween blind disciples like Rabin and 'cynical opportunists, you un- derstand?" Mr. Amir says. "Bibi is an opportunist. He can still be molded, influenced. But a blind disciple goes with his head against the wall, into the abyss."
