Joint List Chairman MK Yosef Jabarin called today in an interview on Kan Bet for the formation of a government based on Jewish-Arab partnership, declaring that this is 'the only unity' that should be advanced to replace Netanyahu's rule. The remarks come as Gadi Eisenkot enters the second week of his mandate to form a government and negotiations between the Yashar party and Likud continue. Jabarin said: 'The election results were very clear: there is a majority of 67 Knesset members against Netanyahu and his reckless government. The only unity we should think about today is Jewish-Arab unity, which will lead to the ousting of the Netanyahu, Ben Gvir, and Smotrich government. This is the order of the hour.' The article notes that his statement sharpens the controversy over the possibility of relying on MKs who support terrorism and the Joint List party. Also mentioned are statements by MK Ahmad Tibi, including his declaration 'We are the masters of the land' at a wedding in Umm al-Fahm and an interview on the Lebanese channel Al-Jadeed in which he explained the List's support for Eisenkot.
