On the eve of the 26th anniversary of his death, the Yitzhak Rabin assassination conspiracy theory is back in the headlines.  Was it Yigal Amir who fired the fatal bullet, at Rabin Square in Tel Aviv, or did something else happen in the ambulance when Rabin was rushed to the hospital?  Was it a Shin Bet agent perhaps?
