Netanyahu's bloc boycotts Arabs, and when convenient cooperates with them

A Shkuf investigation reveals that the Netanyahu bloc, which leads calls to boycott Arab parties, has relied on them in the past when it served its interests. Examples include Ra'am's abstention that enabled the passage of the 1998 budget, and Netanyahu's vote to expand Sharon's government in 2005 while Ra'am abstained. The author calls on the change bloc to ignore the campaign and consider cooperation based on shared interests.

An investigative report by Shkuf claims that the Netanyahu bloc, which leads calls to boycott Arab parties, cooperates with them when it serves its interests. The article presents historical examples: in 1998, Netanyahu relied on Ra'am's abstention to pass a budget; in 2005, he voted to expand Sharon's government while Ra'am abstained; and in the 24th Knesset, opposition achievements were secured by relying on votes from what he calls 'terror supporters.' The author calls on the leaders of the change bloc to ignore the delegitimization campaign and consider cooperation based on common interests.
