Twenty years ago, the prime minister of Israel was assassinated. The killer was a lone gunman, Israeli and Jewish, just like the prime minister. Lots of witnesses saw it happen; the assassin confessed immediately, that night, and has never recanted. But today, oddly, lots of people don't believe it happened that way. And a question hangs over the country: did this act change the fate of the nation?

This episode taught me a lot about 1) Conspiracy theories in general and why they exist 2) The Israel-Palestine conflict and why it's not ending anytime soon
