Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, Said tonight (Saturday) at a meeting of the Likud Secretariat: “This time we will have at least two seats from the Arab sector. They love our peace, they see that we have eradicated crime. “
Netanyahu sums up 2020
Chairman of the New Hope Party, Gideon Saar, Attacked Netanyahu in a tweet on Twitter: “After years of inaction and inaction, tonight the prime minister recalled talking about formulating a plan to eradicate crime in Arab society. It is unfortunate that to this day the subject has not interested him And that his government has only recently prevented the passage of my bill for minimum penalties for illegal arms holders and traffickers. “

Criticism of Netanyahu’s appeal to the Arab sector was also heard in the joint list. MK Sami Abu Shehadeh (Balad) tweeted: “Netanyahu has decided to take Abbas on a flotilla on the Titanic. We know Netanyahu and we refused to come up from the beginning. “
Chairman of the Prime Minister, Mansour Abbas, He also referred to Netanyahu’s statement: “I was happy to identify first and lead the change in the perception of politicians on the Israeli right towards Arab society, a hostile attitude toward Arab citizens and the attitude that places them at the center of political discourse in the shadow of this complex election campaign! “I recommend that you look for votes in Hadera and not in Umm al-Fahm.”
Chairman of Balad on the joint list, MK Amtans Shehadeh, Condemned Netanyahu’s moves and said: “Netanyahu’s chair is shaking, so he imagines scenarios in which the Arab public will vote for those who oppressed, drove, incited and evicted him. Our buses are ready to flock to the polls, but certainly not to vote for the big instigators against us.”
The Minister of Internal Security from the Likud, Amir Ohana, Attacked Saar back and tweeted: “Because your memory betrayed you: 2015: A precedent-setting five-year plan worth NIS 15 billion, 2020: Resolutions 922 and 1480 have been extended, the establishment of nine police stations for Arab society, tomorrow: I will present to the Prime Minister a plan “Lam worked on it for a year. There is more to do, but those who tweet” inaction and inaction “do not offer new hope But old and false politics“.
In recent weeks, it has been claimed that there has been a rapprochement between Netanyahu and the RAAM faction on the joint list, led by Mansour Abbas. Abbas said in a recent interview with Maariv: “I do not rule out a meeting with Netanyahu.”
This provoked criticism of Netanyahu, claiming that in the last election campaign he attacked Blue and White against the background of her alleged intention to form a government with the support of the joint list.
