Political advisor Eliran Tal is urging right-wing voters in Israel to overcome complacency ahead of the upcoming elections, warning that a low turnout could lead to a significant increase in the number of seats held by Arab parties. Tal stated on Tuesday that Arab parties could potentially win 15-16 Knesset seats, a result he believes would "change the entire political map for the worse" and grant unprecedented power to factions he claims work against Israel's interests.

Tal drew a comparison between Arab lawmakers, suggesting that while Mansour Abbas presents a moderate image, his true positions align with those of Tibi, whom Tal described as openly stating what Abbas attempts to conceal. According to Tal, this perceived hidden agenda poses a danger to Israel as a Jewish state.

He emphasized that if the right-wing public does not mobilize and vote, the projected surge in support for Arab parties could dramatically alter the political landscape to their detriment. Tal's remarks were made during a morning program with Tal Meir.
