Media personality Attila Somfalvi has sharply criticized members of the Joint List party for leaving the Knesset plenum during the singing of Israel's national anthem, "Hatikvah." The dramatic walkout occurred during the swearing-in ceremony for the 26th Knesset, the new Israeli parliament. Somfalvi took to his X (formerly Twitter) account to condemn the action, calling it a "stupid act by the Joint List members. Disgraceful." He argued that the boycott of the anthem not only disrespected the official ceremony and the parliament but primarily harmed the public that these Knesset members represent. Somfalvi expressed frustration with the party's choice to adopt a confrontational and alienating stance on the first day of the new Knesset, stating, "Go back to harming their public, first and foremost."
