However, we don't say that about any other murderers, that their murder is OK, because others delete other commandments. Anyway, as far as secular people are concerned, most do not work on Shabbat, so there is some holiness, even if not totally. Also, in Shimon perese long life, he was a frum Yid during his youth in Poland, and broke people's radios in the shtedil where he lived if they were being used. he somewhat lapsed in his life, but I am sure as president he does not publicly desecrate Shabbat.Meir Snoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-50679790448999594442013-10-17T09:37:33.689+03:002013-10-17T09:37:33.689+03:00He said a 'holy' commandment.

There are plenty of ways to criticize (sorry, can't find a strong enough word, so I'll go with that one) Rabin's murder. But if you choose to take the "Torah" path, you have to at least lead a life which is consistent with basic Torah mandates.<br /><br />Had he gone with the morality argument, you'd have a point.
