Once again MK (Ra’am-Ta’al) is at the epicenter of the Knesset storm for his continued outspoken support for Gaza. The latest message in which he tells his brethren in Gaza “to remain steadfast” appeared on his Facebook page. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu led the condemnations of the MK, who was praying for Gazans as a million Israelis were in safe rooms in southern Israel, under attack by rockets fired from Gaza.
Tibi however was far from apologetic, explaining he never minced words in his opposition to firing rockets from Gaza into Israeli population centers. He told the press he was also outspoken in his opposition to rockets fired into Israel from southern Lebanon. At the same time he accuses Israel of acting “immorally by bombing civilians in Gaza under the guise the terrorists are using the civilians of Gaza as human shields”.
Tibi added Israelis should be ashamed of the actions of the IDF, especially people like Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Danon.

Did Tibi take an oath of allegiance to the JEWISH state of Israel before he was permitted to serve?
Having a person like Tibi in the Knesset comes close to idiocy. He is an outspoken enemy of the Jewish state. He went to Hebrew University and trained as a physician in Hadassah hospital. If the Israelis think this makes them look generous, they are sadly in error. More likely it
gives a message of a fool.
expel him
Who put this guy there anyway? He should be expelled.
Where does he live? Can the Mossad arrange for a rocket to just by “coincidence” hit his house?
And the Israeli courts claimed that the late Rabbi Meir Kehane was a racist and ineligible to run for reelection to the Knesset.
