Former American Mid-East envoy Martin Indyk claimed Israel’s PM Netanyahu told him at Yitzhak Rabin’s funeral, “If he had not been assassinated, I would have beaten him in the [1996] elections.”

Former U.S. Middle East envoy Martin Indyk lied twice about a supposed conversation he had with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the funeral of Yitzhak Rabin in 1995, a Prime Minister’s Office official said on Wednesday.
The spat involving Indyk began following the airing of a PBS Frontline program about Netanyahu that aired on Tuesday.
