Report: Abbas won’t say whom he’ll back as PM, will condemn political violence

Channel 12 news says Ra’am party leader Mansour Abbas won’t declare whom he will back as prime minister in his widely anticipated speech tonight.

Rather, the report says, he’ll tell the Jewish public that his party is “conservative like you,” and will condemn politically and religiously motivated violence in an apparent attempt to indirectly condemn Palestinian terror attacks.
