25 years after the Rabin assassination, the man charged with protecting Israel and its leaders from internal security threats fears a repetition. His warning must be heeded

‎Argaman did not invoke the Rabin assassination in his statement, but unnamed security officials, speaking to journalists after he had issued his warning, explicitly paralleled the current eruption of foul allegations of political treachery, betrayal and ostensible national political crisis, to the weeks and months before a far-right Jewish extremist, Yigal Amir, gunned down prime minister Yitzhak Rabin on the night of November 4 , 1995.‎

We have been down this road before. The man charged with protecting this country and its leaders from internal security threats — whose agency is still deeply scarred by the failure to prevent the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin — fears that we are speeding down it again.

Woe betide us all if his strikingly uncharacteristic warning is not urgently heeded.
