KNESSET ERUPTS AS FAR-RIGHT MINISTER CALLS ARABS TERRORISTS
July 20, 2024Israeli National Security Minister, Itamar Ben Gvir, called Palestinian Knesset members, Ahmed Tibi and Ayman Odeh, “terrorists” during a Knesset session, demanding their removal from the Knesset. As the Knesset members approached the speaker’s podium, security guards attempted to stop them by force, prompting members from Likud to rush towards them.
In 2008, the Jerusalem District Court found Ben Gvir guilty of incitement to racism and supporting a terrorist organisation, according to The Times of Israel.
This conviction stemmed from his display of a placard reading “Arabs out” and anti-Arab signs in his car, which were linked to the far-right Kach movement, a Jewish group banned as a terrorist organisation.
So much for the proclaimed “equality for all” society Israel portrays.

Member of Parliament, I ask you to leave without words. Sorry, sorry, member of Parliament. The minister as well, the minister. Sorry, sorry, member of Parliament. Member of Parliament, I ask you to leave without words. Sorry, honorable minister. Honorable minister, it was unnecessary to say that word.
