Gadi Eisenkot Backs Disqualification of Arab MK Sami Abed Al-Rahman
Gadi Eisenkot, leader of the Yachad party and a candidate for prime minister, announced Tuesday his support for a request to disqualify Sami Abed Al-Rahman, head of the National Democratic Assembly, from running in the upcoming 26th Knesset elections. Eisenkot's declaration came one day before the Central Elections Committee was set to review petitions to disqualify various lists and candidates. These include Abed Al-Rahman, the Joint List, the United Arab List, Knesset Member Ofer Cassif, and the parties HaDemocratim and Otzma Yehudit, among others.
In a statement, Eisenkot stated, "What was written on October 8 cannot be erased by a clarifying post." The article implies this refers to controversial statements made by Abed Al-Rahman.
