Yitzhak Rabin, Israel's ambassador in Washington, 1968-1973
After his term as IDF chief of staff, Yitzhak Rabin arrived in Washington with a mission. As early as March 1967, he had identified the US capital as Israel’s primary diplomatic battleground and decided to take part in the struggle. As ambassador, he navigated between different policy initiatives, and, through the ties he forged with the White House, helped to ensure the supply of US arms to Israel. A new publication on Rabin’s stay in Washington presents this less familiar chapter in his career, which helped to prepare him for entering politics and, within a short time, becoming prime minister.
