MK Hanin Zoabi was removed from the Knesset plenum on Wednesday by ushers after she refused to comply with instructions the Deputy Knesset Speaker. She was instructed to wind down her address, but continued, preferring to ignore the Deputy Speaker.
Zoabi was attacking Israel for the cancelation of the sporting event between Israel and Argentina due to the violence along the Gaza border, explaining the message is that Israel is not above international law and the state should be boycotted.
Argentina canceled a soccer match with Israel due to Arab pressure. The match was slated to take place on Shabbos in Yerushalayim.
Zoabi is true to her agenda, which is the destruction of the State of Israel, having already been sanctioned for calling IDF soldiers “Nazis” and accusing them of war crimes. That said, the chareidi parties have refused to sign a petition that would provide sufficient signatures to oust her from Knesset, as some feel must be done to her constant anti-Israeli agenda.

She should not be just ousted from the Knesset. She should be convicted of inciting violence, and jailed. When she dies in prison, send her carcass to wherever she came from. Being a member of the Knesset is about representation in the government, not the enemy voice seeking to destroy the country. She does not deserve life. Feed her to the hungry carnivores in the zoo.
i second the motion
“Being a member of the Knesset is about representation in the government”… Erm, no, the legislature’s job is to hold the government to account. Which she is trying to do. Albeit slightly too vociferously.
She is the elected representative of some of Israel’s population, all of whom get a vote and representation, unlike apartheid states where some parts of the population have no representation rights.
Well, just last week there was an article here in YWN that the Chareidi candidates at the Knesset were abstaining themselves from voting in favor of a bill to get rid of her. So maybe we should ask those Chareidi candidates in the Knesset about their darling co-MK Zoabi.
