The Yitzhak Rabin Center in Israel reportedly canceled an event due to the planned participation of far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir. The conference had been organized by Ben Gvir’s own ministry. The decision to nix the event stems from concerns over Ben Gvir’s past rhetoric, specifically threats made leading up to the 1995 assassination of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. Reports indicate the center objected to his presence given this history. This decision has sparked a political dispute, highlighting ongoing sensitivities surrounding Rabin’s murder and the current government's composition. The incident underscores the contentious nature of Ben Gvir’s political views and their impact on Israeli society.
