Joint List's Eisenkot Endorsement and Members' Praise for Convicted Attackers

Joint List. Yes, al-Mushtaraka. Last week, a meeting was held at which representatives of the Joint List recommended Gadi Eisenkot for president as their candidate for prime minister.

The Joint List, together with all its constituent parties, decided to recommend Eisenkot's candidacy.

Behind the sweet talk and smiling atmosphere, the elephant in the room was barely mentioned.

The members of the list have a long record of supporting and honoring terrorists on various occasions.

While some are trying to hide it, we're here to say that the archive remembers.

The year is 2011. Outside the national headquarters of Mizrahi Tefahot Bank in the city of Lod, a reception is being held for released terrorist Mukhlis Burgal, a native of the city.

No, the celebration of the liberation of the sons of our people!

No, the celebration of liberation! He was a member of the Popular Front terrorist organization, and threw a grenade at a bus carrying soldiers.

For that, he was sentenced to life in prison, later commuted to forty years by Supreme Court judges.

Ultimately, he was released in the Shalit deal.

Cheers! Cheers! Cheers!

Cheers! This terrorist started a new life, and in 2013, he also got married.

One of the wedding celebration's guests was the new Knesset member, Bakr Awdeh.

Hello, everyone. My name is Bakr. Awdeh posted a photo from the event on Facebook, and shared in an emotional post: “The wedding celebration in Ramla became a national demonstration, which brought together the people who made the greatest sacrifices for the homeland.

When one of those present asked to take a group photo of the released male and female prisoners outside the hall, we looked around and discovered the hall was almost empty.

May we live to see all the male and female prisoners released.”

That same year, 2013, Awdeh also shared a Facebook post in which he himself appeared at a demonstration in support of terrorists on hunger strike in prison, or of the “heroic prisoners,” as he described them in the post,

which went on to rebuke the Arab members of the Knesset.

Only four Knesset members attended the demonstration, and we have the right to ask, if this demonstration had taken place before the election, Was there even one person who bears the title of leader who dared to miss it?

Seventy-three nations, hold Karim, Karim Younes, in captivity.

In 1980, the terrorists Karim and Maher Younes, cousins from the village of Ara in Wadi Ara, kidnapped and brutally murdered IDF soldier Avraham Bromberg as he was on his way home from the base.

The two were released from prison in early 2023.

Over the years, Knesset member Ahmad Tibi praised Karim Younes.

In July this year, Maher Younes died. Hassan Nasrassra, who was chosen for tenth place on the Joint List, published a post eulogizing the terrorist: “With his passing, we lose an important national and human figure, a symbol of steadfastness and sacrifice,

who left a deep impression on the hearts of all who knew him and in the memory of his people and their struggle.”

Thus, alongside the polite statements at the President’s Residence, a different picture emerges.

A series of representatives on the Joint List who chose over the years to publish words of praise and solidarity with those who had been convicted of terrorism.
