Actor Aviv Alush spoke out today (Monday) against remarks by MK Ayman Odeh of the Hadash faction, who stated in a podcast that 'ending the occupation is a matter of time.' In a post he shared, Alush wrote: 'You don't need to be the head of Shin Bet or a Middle East expert, you just need to open your eyes and ears and understand that this whole bunch are open supporters of terror.' He added that 'in a proper situation they should be expelled from here or in prison – certainly not sitting in the Knesset and getting paid from our money.' Alush quoted a verse from the Book of Exodus and warned against making a covenant with the inhabitants of the land. The article notes that just last month Odeh revealed in an interview his goal to act within Israeli society to change public opinion and end the occupation. It also mentions a significant increase in the number of seats for Arab parties in the elections for the 26th Knesset, with 70.7% of the votes and 19 seats.
