The High Court's decision to allow Knesset member Hiba to back out of the joint list, formerly called terrorist Samir Kuntar "Shahid," to take part in elections to the 23rd Knesset caused angry reactions in the political system on Sunday.

The Likud responded to the decision: "Shame. Gantz has no government without the joint list. After the decision today, anyone who wants Hiba will fight the opposition and not the government - must vote only for the Likud."

Former Justice Minister MK Ayelet Shaked said: "The Supreme Court has qualified a terrorist supporter and on Article 7A, the President of the Supreme Court, Justice Solberg, Justice Mintz and Justice Elron were in the minority opinion that should be rejected. Increasing the conservative camp I led, three years ago, in my tenure as a justice minister proves the results on the ground, but there is still a lot of work ahead of us. "

Israeli House Speaker MK Avigdor Lieberman also commented on the court's decision: "We are witnessing a very unfortunate decision by the Supreme Court. Hiba Izbak and her friends should sit in Ramallah parliament and not the Israeli Knesset. The fact that the court reversed the decision of the committee The election and allowing Yizbak to contend in the upcoming elections is a reward for the supporters of terrorism. "Yisrael Beiteinu will never cooperate with the joint Arab list and also recommend Netanyahu and Gantz to do so."

MK Tamar Zandberg, Labor-Meretz-mediator, expressed support for the court's decision: "I call on the right for the verdict and not to follow the regular incitement against the court. The court ruling stems from legal and non-political considerations. The verdict and for the sake of change not to act on the regular level in which incitement against the Arabs continues according to tradition also to the court. "

Yezbak: "Requests Disqualified Part of Incitement Circus Against Arab Society"

MK Hiba Yazbak also responded to the High Court's decision to cancel her disqualification, saying: "The Supreme Court's decision again shows that the disqualification requests are part of the incitement against me and against Arab society and its representatives - this was not a personal disqualification request, but a move that is not part of it. Separate from the ongoing persecution and delegitimization. The Election Commission's decision to disqualify me was a political decision by a political committee, in which the parties competed in a rally against me and against members of the joint list. "

She added: "We will continue to work towards ending the occupation and lifting the siege and for just and peaceful citizenship and for equal and just citizenship. I continue to work fully on the joint list campaign to raise the percentage of voting and representation of Arab society in the Knesset."

Also on the joint list, to which MK Yizbak belongs, responded in a similar vein: "Again, the far-right campaign against MK Yizbak has been proven and the joint list is cheap propaganda aimed at legitimizing Arab elected officials. Anyone who is dragged after Kahanis in support of the Knesset's disapproval will be embarrassed by the court's decision. The joint list and the Knesset Member will continue to work to advance the interests of the Arab public in the upcoming Knesset and all weakened populations without succumbing to the incitement and persecution attempts.

Earlier today, the High Court ruled that Knesset member Hiba Yasbak and Larissa Trimbobler, your wife Yigal Amir, the late Knesset Yitzhak Rabin, will be able to contend in the 23rd Knesset elections.
