Description

At the beginning of the 1990s it seemed as if the world was taking a new turn toward peace.  Germany was reunited, Nelson Mandela was released from prison and an historic peace deal was reached between the Israelis and Palestinians.

The Middle East Peace Agreement, signed in 1993 on the lawn of U.S. White House, was the first major step toward ending a decades old deadly conflict.  But just two years later the agreement fell apart after the shocking assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin.

On this episode of History of the 90s we look back at a time when peace in the Middle East almost seemed possible and take you through the night when a Jewish extremist gunned down the man who almost made it happen.
