- Ben-Gvir stated his party opposes those who support terrorism.
National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir returned to his legal roots on Tuesday, donning a lawyer's robe for a hearing concerning the disqualification of Balad party chairman Sami Abu Shehadeh from the Knesset.
Ben-Gvir stated he resumed his role as a lawyer for this specific purpose, retrieving the robe he had kept in storage for years. "Today I returned to my days as a lawyer and put on the robe that lay in the closet for years, for one thing: to represent Otzma Yehudit's request to disqualify Balad chairman Sami Abu Shehadeh," he said.
The request stems from an article Abu Shehadeh published on October 8, 2023, the day after Hamas's attack on Israel. Ben-Gvir cited the article, saying, "On October 8, while the blood of our brothers and sisters was spilled in the streets, Abu Shehadeh was busy writing an article in Arabic against Israel in a Qatari-owned newspaper."
Ben-Gvir concluded his remarks by asserting, "Otzma Yehudit will act everywhere and in every legal way against those who support terrorism. Go away, Abu Shehadeh!"
