entitle the famous scene of Yitzhak Rabin and Yassar Arafat shaking hands, with Bill Clinton behind them, "Downfall" (13 September 1993, Oslo Accords).
Rabin would go on to be assassinated by an Israeli citizen unhappy with Israel making peace with the Palestinians. Israelis generally agreed with the assassination, choosing to replace Rabin (actually Rabin's successor) with a hard-line government bent on making war with Palestine.
Arafat's PLO would go on go be supplanted by Hamas, a hard-line government bent on making war with Israel. along the way, Arafat dies, possibly assassinated by that Isareli government bent on making war with Palestine.
Clinton's political party would quickly go on to lose both houses of Congress (Contract with America), and later the Presidency, to a hard-line party bent on antisemitism and Islamophobia.
