Arab List Seeks Ouster

Ayman Odeh said that bringing down the government of Benjamin Netanyahu, Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich was at the top of the Joint Arab List’s agenda, and that the election was crucial to confronting projects aimed at Judaizing the Negev and Galilee. He explained that contact with Gadi Eisenkot had not been official and had focused on education, social welfare and combating crime. Odeh stressed that the list had not asked to join the government, but had expressed its readiness to cooperate to prevent Netanyahu’s return. He said the list would not join a government that violated international law, and that its votes would be decisive in an effort to oust the Knesset speaker. He added that passing Eisenkot’s proposals would be difficult without coordination with the list.
