Likud MK: No place for people like Ghattas in Knesset

Likud minister Yariv Levin joins the outrage over Arab MK Basel Ghattas calling the ailing Peres a war criminal.

“He’s a rabble-rouser,” Levin tells Army Radio. “There is no place for people like this in the Israeli parliament.”

Ghattas hits back at the angry responses to his comments, saying: “It is beneath my dignity to reply to such lunatics.”
