Ze’ev Elkin says Joint List MKs should be kicked out of Knesset

Ze’ev Elkin, the Minister of Immigration and Absorption says he always “argued that Balad MKs work for terrorist groups… and their place is outside of the Israeli parliament.”

He calls to “stop the disgrace.”

A Palestinian organization representing the “families of shahids” invited all lawmakers from the Joint List, a list comprising all Arab parties in the Knesset, to meet in Jerusalem. Three MKs from Balad, one of the parties comprising the list, showed up for the meeting.

According to Israeli media sources, the three MKs, Hanin Zoabi, Jamal Zahalka and Basel Ghattas met the parents of the murderers a day before Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas hosted them in his Ramallah office.
