Avigdor Eskin was born in the Soviet Union, and emigrated to Israel where he became more politically active. He currently commutes between Israel and Russia:Read more »
He became famous in 1995, when he allegedly laid a curse, known as the Pulsa diNura death curse on Prime Minister Yitzak Rabin, in response to the Oslo Accords.
The Oslo Accords were considered a fake treaty / ongoing milestone (depending on whether you value sincere treaty's or pretend one's) between the Palestinians (PLO) and Israel, regarding the Arab-Israeli conflict. It was -- as diplomatic lying politicians always promise -- intended to resolve the 'final status issues' between Palestinians and Israelis.
The Pulsa diNura is an alleged curse that allegedly 'works' within 30 days, and by fateful synchronicity Mr. Rabin was assasinated 32 days later, by Yigal Amir. Consequently Mr. Eskin was charged with incitement, convicted and served a four month prison term. (Interesting that President Zuma's recent curse against ANC members warning them not to leave the ANC, did not seem to bother anyone in the ANC.)
An alleged former colleague from Moscow describes him as:"I remember him from Moscow. Anatoly Eskin. He is a ger like you. In Moscow he had a class in Tehillim. His grandfather was Jewish. He was very active in Moscow. Left to Israel in 1979 where he became very close to Meir Kahane. He mastered Ivrit and became an accomplished and prolific journalist with a significant readership. He was always consistently far right and has been in the Israeli prison at least two times that I know of. Among other things he gave regular interviews to a Russian Jewish radio station in NY from prison!
"A lot of people respect him. I remember he was ideologically uncompromising rather than crazy.
Ideologically uncompromising! Now that is something the ideologically compromising find extremely offensive! No wonder he isn't liked by some.
