This document is page 276 from a book (likely Ehud Barak's memoir) submitted as evidence to the House Oversight Committee. It details Barak's internal conflict and subsequent abstention during a cabinet vote on the Oslo II agreement, causing friction with Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin. The text also describes the rising political tension in Israel, including incitement by right-wing leaders and Benjamin Netanyahu against Rabin's government.

This document appears to be a page from the memoir of Ehud Barak (identified by the name 'Ehud' and context of Israeli politics), stamped with a House Oversight bates number. The text recounts a phone call with Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin while Barak was flying to Seattle in April (likely 1995), during which Rabin asked him to return to Israel immediately to serve as Minister of Interior. The passage references the political instability involving Arye Deri and the Shas party, and foreshadows Rabin's assassination with the comment about his words being 'prophetic.'
