It is disconcerting that the Joint List is even part of the Israeli Knesset. The Palestinian so-called “resistance” is based on the goal of annihilating Israel (“From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free”). Joint List leader Ayman Odeh has declared that Jerusalem would “one day become the main city of ‘Palestine.’…’On these walls, the flag of Palestine will be hoisted and Jerusalem will be the capital of reconquered Palestine.'” The Palestinians have always sought a one-state solution, that is, the total destruction of Israel.
It is unheard of that any member of any parliamentary body in any republic would openly celebrate murderers or incite murder. Yet Israeli Arab leaders and activists do it frequently.
“Ex-Knesset lawmaker interrogated on suspicion of incitement on social media,” by Josh Breiner and Jack Khoury, Haaretz, July 5, 2021:
A former lawmaker from the Arab-majority Joint List, Heba Yazbak, was questioned by the police on Monday on suspicion of incitement and what was described as identification with a terrorist act on social media.
Yazbak, who is a member of the Balad party, one of three factions currently in the Joint List, was questioned at the offices of the Lahav 433 investigation unit of the Israel Police regarding Facebook posts in 2013, 2015 and 2017, before she became a legislator in 2019.
She is suspected of sharing posts supporting terrorism, including the acts committed by top Hezbollah operative Samir Kuntar.
In 2015, Yazbak posted a picture of Kuntar – who killed a man and his 4-year-old daughter in a terrorist attack in Nahariya in 1979 – along with the caption “shahid” (martyr) and the remark “I haven’t returned from Palestine except to return to Palestine.”
In 2013, she posted a picture of Dalal Mughrabi, a woman who led a cell from Lebanon that carried out the so-called Coastal Road massacre north of Tel Aviv in 1978 – in which 38 Israelis, including 13 children, were killed. In her post, Yazbak wrote: “Dalal Mughrabi lived for 20 years and did all this. Blessed be the women of the resistance.”….
Infidel says
So she’s Israel’s Rashida Tlaib?
Yeah, it’s insane that Israel allows the Joint List to be a part of the Knesset. It would be like India allowing a party that wants to make Kashmir a part of Pakistan contest in their parliament or state elections. Unfortunately, divided as they are at 60:59 or so, it’s impossible for them to pass any real laws
Keith O says
When Israeli’s are sworn into office they swear an oath to protect Israel and uphold it’s laws.
She has broken that oath.
That is at best a criminal offence and at worst treason.
So, she and any other person who breaks their oath of office, no matter what country they live in should be removed and charged.

………………..
More and more, we see this kind of thing from Muslims in Israel–including current and former members of the Knesset. Here’s one story:
