Israeli Opposition Plans to Replace Knesset Speaker, Lawmaker Says
Ahmad Tibi, head of the Ta'al party, stated in an interview with Channel 12 that a primary objective for the opposition following the upcoming Knesset elections will be to replace the current speaker of parliament. Tibi criticized the incumbent speaker, Amir Ohana, accusing him of turning the Knesset into a "Kahanist market." He emphasized that changing the speaker could significantly impact the proceedings within the parliament. The Likud party responded to Tibi's remarks, suggesting that his statement revealed a hidden agenda. Likud asserted that supporting candidates like Benny Gantz (referring to Eisenkot) and Avigdor Lieberman would effectively hand over control of the country to figures like Tibi and Mansour Abbas.
