Liberman tells Arab lawmakers they will ‘soon go back to Gaza with Hamas’

Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman tells Arab lawmakers they are sitting in Israel’s parliament “by mistake” and will soon “go back to Gaza, with Hamas, or Ramallah.”

He accuses Arab lawmakers of taking advantage of Israel’s liberties to “destroy us from the inside.”

“You’re sitting here by mistake,” he tells the Arab MKs in the plenum. The day will soon come, he adds, when “you won’t be here.”

He also brands the Arab lawmakers “war criminals”
