The Kempler video had been doctored with when it was first broadcast, which didn't do any favours to its credibility. But I notice that the copy Myra posted above has been even further doctored with when compared to the copy given to me by Barry Chamish and which Ricard & I first viewed in the Leeds hotel room.
In that copy it was very clear that the bodyguard walking to the rear left of Rabin suddenly stopped, turned, placed his hands together in front of him and stood still. Rabin and his other bodyguard (positioned on his right rear shoulder) continued walking. Thus a space opened behind Rabin and it was in this exact space that Yigal Amir stepped into to shoot the two shots. The firing of these two shots were also able to be seen in the original footage, as well as Rabin being tumbled to the floor and then literally thrown in the limo.
The subsequent journey to Ichilov hospital, approximately 800 hundreds yards distant -- with the roads pre-cleared of all traffic by security -- was truly remarkable. A runner could have covered the distance involved in under 4 minutes, whereas a panic race by his security driver to the hospital bearing the twice shot (apparently) head of state should have taken no more than 1 minute in real life (and probably half of that).
In reality, this journey took 8.5 minutes.
Plenty of time to administer the fatal contact shot to the chest.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
