Hebrew(not finished and not perfect)

I want to tell here about Avishay Raviv as I knew him.

I do not try to looking for answers about murder he was involve. I just try analyze the personality of this man. It is not my business to decide if there is was conspiracy or not. I publish this material with hope that some find my suggestions useful as a base for more serious Analise of the persons involve in to the Israeli prime minister's murder. Because any political ideas dose not help to such Analise I try even do not use Rabin's name when it is possible.



I 'v working with this man together about three month. For this moment I didn't know who he is. I come to the country in the winter 1996. Rabin was killed in November 1995. May be I sew Raviv's pictures but after years I didn't remember his face.I remember that some day people was talking about some thing that I “do not know”.I was not close enough to some one in the group to ask what this is. Raviv served in army in Laban's war period. I was interested if he was in actions. The answer was positive. He was injured in the leg and get government suite. I was injured in the knife attack and other people, injured in act indents or on the war interested to me. Some day Raviv sad that he have a date with his girl friend and another girl. He ask me if I want to join. I had not another plans on this evening and I took his offer.

This meeting start our relationship that continued for a few months. We play “matkot”(Israeli national sport) few time. Mostly he was interested in girls telephones numbers. On this moment Raviv had not “kipa” and look like others secular Ashkenazim. He look purity good, have beautiful dark blue “Toyota carrola” and should be successful swinger. That is why his offer looks me weird. I was fill that he try to use me but didn't know why he need this. I thing, his problem was that he was before his marriage and he afraid that some one report to his girl friend about his dates.

One day I tell him that I have a one night date. He sad that want to see the girl. It looks me stupid but I agreed. I've seating with the girl in some coffee shop close to the window so he can see her. I do not know who was the girl but she catch us(if Igal Amir suspect Raviv?) on this mission. This time nobody die. Avishay do not like how girl look but still want to get her phone number. I did not tell him but the fact that she open our conspiracy make me worry. Normal people dose not check if some one fallow them. I should meet the girl one more time but she turn off the phone when I call her. We agree to meet each other again and she was not drunk. I decide do not give her number to Avishay. He make me scandal, try to push on me, remind me how he help me, call to guys solidarity but nothing is work.

Second time he organize date to me. The problem was that the girl that phone number he give me dose not come to date. I ask Raviv to meet in some coffee shop near to my home and tell him that I thing that he fallow me around and I do not like it. He sad that this is the mistake and that he carry about it right now. Raviv call to the girl immediately from his cell phone. The girl does not recognize him. When he try to introduce him self he remind to the girl that they work together when “he was bodyguard of the prime minister”. With all respect to Raviv's outside look, injured guy can not be some bodies bodyguard. I do not remember well what we talking about in this evening. I guess It was critical moment when he try to open to me who he is.

Now I think why I did not push at Raviv to tell me the true or it will be better to say why I was not prepared to take the true. I thing that Raviv's role in Rabin's murder much smaller then Israelis try make it. Some people thing that Raviv is right extremist that agree to cooperate with Shabak(Israeli Secret Service, Shin-Bet) the others that he was Shaback provocateur. Any way his figure looks to the public like some angel of evil that direct murderer's hand. I do not thing that Igal Amir listen at Raviv. Avishay Raviv have not power to control people. Shampania(“champaign” his nick name in Shin-Bet) perfect description of his personality. There is no doubt that he is injured. Question is where and how. I didn't find any information about his army duty. If he really was on the Laban's war it's mean that he have PTD(post traumatic disorder) and he can be manipulated quiet well but I do not thing that he can be a manipulator. If he was injured before the intendant there is serious problem of using such a people by government. Israeli public dose not know if he was full payment agent or just informator. Now(to the moment I knew him) he to much play an agent of secret service but this can be result of second stress. The fact that he was involve in the murder can be a reason of such a stress. Full payment government worker can not have the same political ideas as image that he play. Also government should take responsibility to clear his person after his mission was finished. In case of Avishay Raviv this is not happened. I do not thing that he work on the government. He start play the agent when right extremists kick him out from all possible movements and groups. This guy play games but the problem is that he believe that this game is reality. Both of them Raviv and Amir play game that goes to far. I thing that nobody in Shaback didn't thing that they can do something real. This is the answer why I did not believe that he was “prime minister's bodyguard”.

May be now he looks to him self like Rabin's bodyguard that make mistake. Love make people crazy. Amir was in love with Har Shefy and this was pushing him to make a fatal step that cross the line between fantasy and reality. And there is none who stop him when he did this step. If Raviv responsible for this? He prefer to thing that people around him can do less that he can. The people with PTS some time have a some border in those mind that break the memory on all that was before the trauma and after this. It is like two different person. One is naive, with stupid fate of an idealist and another one smart and experienced person that they become. They know that when you cross the line there is no way back. Nothing is help to stop the game and come back at home. The man that just kill someone can not believe how this innocent child that he was before can did such a terrible thing. But there is no power that can turn things back. The child that was inside is gone together with a victim of the murder. Another hand innocents is lost and moral low(as part of idealistic fate) doesn't stop them any more. May be Raviv was thinking all of this about him self(solders kill people, if some one forget it) but not about Amir. It is not easy to regularly person to kill another human bin. For the first time Amir should feel like to kill some part of him self. But Amir was trying to prove him self and become “real man that see the blood” as Raviv was for him. Raviv was good trigger(if he want or do not) for the murder.

I just want to tell here one more story that can show what kind of person Raviv has become now. Some day we was walking by Taielet(walking street near to the beach). Suddenly, someone call Raviv name. The guy was in Raviv's age, a little higher and have huge, sportive body type. He ask at Raviv what are he doing. I guess that the guy mean to ask him what he do for the living but Raviv answer that we walking. Second time the guy ask him directly what he do for the living. I can translate the answer like “I have income from love”. When Raviv say it his ayes was full of hate. The conversation was over. Raviv's reaction and the answer looks me weird and I ask him who it was. He sad that it is someone they study together. It was the first time I hear what is Avishay thing about the country and the people. I do not to talk about this here but you can imagen what he tell me. Only now the things sines me more clear. Israelis hate Avishay Raviv. He was working on some low salary work place be cause nobody wants to give him a job. I thing Raviv's reaction was so because the guy should know the answers. May be it was someone from GSS(Shin-Bet). May be he is not work there any more and that why they ”study together”. Any way I thing he love the people in this country no more then people love him. Now he perfect material for organize crime.

I broke our relationship mostly be cause all this hollywoods movie background. I thing he was hurt when I ask him do not call me but I suspect that he cooperate with some mobs and was not carry about. I do not thing that Shin-Bet pay him and this suspect ion still relevant until now.

I know about Rabin's murder no more than everybody in Israel and I do not try to find the answer if there is conspiracy (see links)or not. I have enough real things that happen around. If people can be fully controlled by secret service and to do the things than they never dose with out such control? If some one can answer on this question it is not me. Until some one who plan such manipulation dose not open facts to the public we can not seriously speak about it.
