Knesset members of the joint list, including its chairman Ayman Odeh and the leader of the Knesset Ahmed Tibi, who is a long-standing and experienced parliamentarian and has seen many political moves, knew nothing about the move that was made to elect Blue and Benny Gantz for the presidency.

Yesterday, most of the Knesset members of the joint list also posted social media posts on their support for a representative in the future of MK White Meir Cohen as Speaker of the Knesset, as agreed on understandings reached between the joint list and representatives of Blue and White and MKs Ofer Shalah and Avi Nissenkorn.

Soon, however, the rumors that came to the head of the joint list began to be matched, and the shock and astonishment in the joint list faction room exchanged rage and harsh words against Benny Gantz.

Joint Listing Chairman MK Ayman Odeh said that "Netanyahu's government cannot be handed over. Blue and white will decide whether they want to win together or surrender alone."

Another senior commented harshly and bluntly on Gantz, saying that "Bnei Gantz betrayed us time and time again. We went against our values ​​and the red lines we set ourselves to give him the support to oust Netanyahu and the right-wing government and got a finger in the eye and a knife in the back."

He said, "We should first and foremost ask forgiveness from our constituency. Nissenkorn and, on the mission of Benny Gantz, sent us sand in our eyes and used us."

The source added that "there were those in the party who initially opposed Gantz and said he would betray us again, but most of the faction and all faction leadership were in favor of recommending him to the president, and finally we also ate the rotten fish and were expelled from the city."

MK Yosef Jabarin of the joint list said that "Likud B, who during the election campaign talked about 'a Jewish majority' and straightened a line with unilateral annexation, a Likud member. We will lead the opposition to the government's continued incitement, racism and occupation. "

MK Ofer Kassif also expressed his condolences, saying that "Benny Gantz chose to steal the mandates and pave the way for a fascist race government led by the serial defendant. I warn Gantz and those who are thinking of going with him - this road will lead to a serious disaster, not only for us but for you as well. To society as a whole. "

MK Tibi was equally adamant, saying that "the joint list said what she said and voted against Benny Gantz's candidacy as Speaker of the Knesset. We will not support this unity government."

"Founding Days"

MK Iman Khatib-Yasin joined the condemnation, saying that "the Chronicles of this House will remember where each and every one of us stood during these formative days. We have come to promote values ​​of living with dignity and stand firm against exclusion and racism, not cheap and value-free politics. "

Senior on the joint list: "There were those in the faction who initially objected to recommending Gantz ... In the end we also ate the rotten fish and were expelled from the city"
