Dear Friends,

Thirty years ago today, gunfire in Tel Aviv shattered one of Israel’s
greatest hopes for peace – and changed history forever.

At 2pm Eastern / 11am Pacific, I hope you’ll join our community for a
powerful J Street conversation marking the somber anniversary of Yitzhak
Rabin's assassination. [ [link removed] ]Register now to join >>

Our guests each carry powerful memories of Rabin – Aaron David Miller, who
sat across the negotiating table from him during the Oslo years, and Yael
Patir, who heard him speak as a young girl growing up in Israel.

Together, we’ll reflect on the courage it took for Rabin to choose peace –
and what it will take for us to carry that vision forward now. I hope
we’ll see you there.

– Eliza Schloss, J Street Content Strategist and Producer

Dear friends,

Thirty years ago, I was a high school student standing in Tel Aviv – full
of hope, surrounded by tens of thousands of Israelis who believed that
peace was possible.

It felt like a turning point – like our country was stepping into a new
era to make permanent peace with our Palestinian neighbors. Hours later,
that sense of possibility was shattered by the sound of three gunshots I
heard and will never forget.

That night – November 4, 1995 – changed Israel forever. It changed me,
too.

Today, I invite you to join me for a special J Street call marking 30
years since the assassination of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, a
conversation about memory, legacy and our commitment to continue the work
towards peace.

🗓️ Tuesday, November 4
⏰ 2pm Eastern / 11am Pacific

I’ll be joined by two members of our community who knew Rabin personally
and saw his leadership up close:

* Yael Patir, Israeli policy expert and former J Street Israel Director,
who worked for years to advance the kind of peace Rabin envisioned.
* Aaron David Miller, veteran American diplomat and member of the US
negotiating team that worked closely with Rabin during the Oslo years.

We’ll reflect not only on Rabin’s assassination, but on his complex
legacy. Rabin was a military commander who came to understand that
Israel’s future could not be built on endless wars and occupation, but on
compromise and coexistence.

Thirty years later, as Israelis and Palestinians continue to live through
cycles of violence, and as Israeli’s far-right leadership puts democracy
itself under strain, Rabin’s legacy calls us to wrestle with the tension
between what he fought for and what remains unfinished in 2025.

See you there. [ [link removed] ]Click here to mark your calendar >>
