Feiglin Slams MK Tibi Over Voting Booth Confrontation

Moshe Feiglin, chairman of the Zehut party, launched a sharp verbal attack on Member of Knesset Ahmad Tibi following a video that circulated online showing Tibi shouting at and berating election workers at a polling station. Feiglin accused Tibi of seeking to humiliate Jewish officials and present himself as the "owner of the house."

In a video response, Feiglin stated, "Ahmad Tibi, you are not the owner of the house, because this is not your house. The Land of Israel belongs to the Jewish people alone." He clarified that non-Jews who accept this fact are welcome to all individual rights, but "a national home will never be here for you, Ahmad. Never."

Feiglin concluded his remarks by telling Tibi, "The national home in the Land of Israel is for the people of Israel alone. And if you don't like it, you are welcome to return to where your family came from, Syria, right? This is not your national home, and you will not make videos here as if you are the owner of the house, because you will never be. This is the home of the people of Israel alone, and if you don't like it, get out of here."
