Disagreements on the joint list on the way to a dramatic decision?

MK Ahmad Tibi, chairman of Ta'al, did not this evening (Saturday) reject outside support of the list in a minority government led by right-wing chairman MK Naftali Bennett, or abstention. 

To a question from the "Meet the Press" presenter, Rina Matzliach in News 12 about the remarks of his friend, the chairman of the list, MK Ayman Odeh (Hadash faction), who firmly rejected the support of Bennett, replied: " Our decision half an hour before.

So when you make a certain decision - unanimously or by a majority decision - it is allowed to suspend the publication.

Sometimes things change like the recommendation for a torch.

My opinion was that we should wait and see.

If our votes were decisive, we in the IAI would be ready, and by the way not only in the IAI.

However, he added: "We think the same about Naftali Bennett, all the Arab MKs.

We did not discuss this in the faction, on Monday there will be the first official faction meeting to discuss any issue. "

As you may recall, this week MK Odeh was asked about the issue in an interview on Radio Nas, and said about the possibility of supporting Bennett: “No, by no means.

We will not replace a racist with a racist. "Odeh even called Bennett" the father of racism. "
