    Isn’t Ben-Gvir the person who purposefully vandalized the former PM Rabin’s car and who was suspected of having connections to those involved in assassinating Rabin?

      I’ve linked to his wikipedia article above. Here’s a relevant quote:

      In 1995, Ben-Gvir came to public attention for the first time, when he appeared on television brandishing a Cadillac hood ornament that had been stolen from Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin’s car, and declared: “We got to his car, and we’ll get to him too.” Several weeks later, Rabin was assassinated by right-wing extremist Yigal Amir.

      But that’s arguably not even the worst bit in the article.
