I don't see anything in that article that stated Sharon really wanted to go. It is a sad fact that Rabin was naive, as even his widow Leah came to realize.

It is a sad fact that Rabin was naive . . .

. . . and therefore needed to be eliminated because he was a danger to the State? Huh? What do you mean by naive?

Without mentioning Yigal Amir by name, President Moshe Katsav declared yesterday that there would be "no absolution and no pardon" for the killer of former prime minister Yitzhak Rabin. Katsav was speaking at a ceremony at the President's Residence to mark the 6th anniversary of the assassination.

"The murder of a prime minister by a Jew, with the intention to foil a political move, is the type of action that can destroy the state," Katsav said, adding: "Israeli society is still tortured, pained and fragile. Our lives are not as they were."

What is ASTONISHING to me is the notion that absolution and pardon WOULD EVEN BE CONSIDERED!!!!
