Members of Knesset (MKs) Tally Gottlieb and Ahmad Tibi engaged in a heated confrontation outside the Supreme Court chamber on Tuesday. The incident occurred as the court heard arguments regarding the disqualification of Arab parties from running in Knesset elections. Gottlieb questioned Tibi, asking if he would acknowledge Israel as a Jewish state. Tibi reacted angrily, telling Gottlieb to leave and suggesting she needed a psychiatrist, adding that he did not care if someone was Jewish or Arab and that Prime Minister Netanyahu had dismissed her. Gottlieb pressed her question about recognizing a Jewish state, to which Tibi responded that people like Gottlieb were the problem for Jews. As Tibi departed, Gottlieb stated that he was incapable of recognizing a Jewish state and called him a "terror supporter."
