The Joint List political alliance has condemned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for allegedly inciting against the Arab community and attempting to suppress voter turnout. The alliance stated that in the final hour before elections, Netanyahu published a report claiming "exceptional crowding at polling stations in the Arab sector," which included images purportedly from Sakhnin and the Negev. The Joint List asserts that these images were fabricated, with one being AI-generated.
The Joint List believes Netanyahu fears high voter turnout among Arabs, as it could lead to the downfall of his government. They position themselves as the decisive force capable of ousting the current administration. The alliance warned that Netanyahu's use of fake images aims to "numb our public and keep them at home."
While acknowledging encouragingly high turnout rates within the Arab community, the Joint List noted that a gap still exists compared to the general Israeli population, particularly in right-wing strongholds and settlements. They urged their supporters to continue voting despite any obstacles, stating, "The hour of decision is approaching, and we will bring down the government of criminals and inciters, and achieve a historic achievement for our community."
