From Israeli investigative reporter Barry Chamish 2004 01 22:The Rabin/Shabak coverups continue with renewed vigor. Just this past fortnight two people who know too much were hushed. On Jan. 20, Dr. Vladimir Yikerivich, past head of cardiology at Ichilov Hospital, was convicted of manslaughter and corruption. Recall that he was the surgeon who operated on Rabin's heart on the murder night. Three years ago, when charges against him were first published, he threatened to open his mouth about what happened that night if the claims against him were pursued. He seems to have had a change of heart.
Then there was the untimely demise by cancer of former Shabak Deputy chief, Yossi Ginosar at age 58. As numerous correspondents noted, convenient cancer strikes again. . . .
The decision to make Ginosar mortally ill may have been made in February 2001. That's when his partner Ozrad Lev revealed to Maariv that Ginosar had laundered over $300 million of money stolen from the Palestinian Authority by Yasir Arafat, in Swiss bank accounts. TOTAL INFORMATION ANALYSIS: Maariv is an Israeli paper, and Shabak the Israeli version of the FBI. Chamish has found information indicating the 'lone nut' assassin of former Israeli PM Yitzhak Rabin was a Shabak patsy. .....---
