Arab MK accuses MK Shaffir of ‘racism’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleJoint (Arab) List MK Jamal Zahalka accuses Zionist Union MK Stav Shaffir of racism, telling the Knesset that the lawmaker has never said hello to him.
The Arab lawmaker says the Zionist Union as a whole is guilty of racism, but singles out Shaffir. “You never say hi to me in the hallway,” he says to Shaffir, and adds that the “rich Ashkenazim have stolen our lands.”
Shaffir takes to the podium to condemn the gas deal a few minutes later, but does not address the personal attack.
