  • Inciting Violence in a Democratic Society Category: Israel Education Author(S): Roey Shiff Edited By: Dan Garwood Created For: Yitzhak Rabin Memorial Day
    Program Title: Inciting Violence in a Democratic Society Category: Israel Education Author(s): Roey Shiff Edited by: Dan Garwood Created for: Yitzhak Rabin Memorial Day Please Note: This program may be used "as-is," however; NFTYites are encouraged to "adapt" programs, combining their own elements of innovation with this preexisting program. TOUCHSTONE TEXT: “Violence erodes the basis of Israeli democracy. It must be condemned and isolated. This is not the way of the State of Israel. In a democracy there can be differences, but the final decision will be taken in democratic elections…”-- Prime Minister Rabin last remarks at Tel Aviv peace rally (November 4, 1995) GOALS: The participants will familiarize themselves with Rabin’s character as a military general and peace activist and with the peace process timeline in Israel. The participants will learn about the process of inciting violence before Rabin’s assassination and the consequences it brought; using this as a case study to encourage awareness of the dangers of inciting violence within our daily lives and to become attuned to the impact it has on our society. The participants explore topics of hate speech and how it influences all people both using and targeted by it, including incidences of hate speech in contemporary American society. DETAILED PROCEDURE: Part A- Interactive timeline of Rabin’s life Divide the participants into four groups. Each group is assigned a category (Childhood, Military Life, Political Life and Peace Process, and Assassination) and given two pieces of paper with of text: a summary of that period of Rabin's life, and an excerpt from a speech that Rabin gave referring to the same subject (Appendix 1).
