MK Ahmed Tibi Mocks Minister Ben Gvir Over Arab Voter Turnout

Summarized from Israel National News by baba

RightCharged tone

English · 1 newsroom

MK Ahmed Tibi insulted Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, calling him "Mr. Blowhard," after the Joint List recommended Gadi Eisenkot to President Isaac Herzog. Tibi stated that high Arab voter turnout, which he estimated at 80%, was a "self-defense" act against the Netanyahu government and prevented its formation. He attributed the increased turnout partly to the actions of government officials who incited violence and threatened settlement expansion.
