31 שנה לרצח רבין: התאריך נשכח, אבל רוח ההסתה חיה ובועטת בזמן שהמערכת הפוליטית מתעלמת מהתאריך הלועזי של הרצח, הגזענות נגד המיעוט הערבי שוברת שיאים חדשים ● מהשרה אורית סטרוק שמדברת על "דמוקרטיה מתגוננת" בבית הנשיא, דרך השתלחויות באולפני הטלוויזיה, ועד להתעלמות המכוונת של מנהיגי גוש השינוי מההזדמנות ההיסטורית לשותפות יהודית-ערבית ● zman.co.il/739672/

The incoming Members of Knesset from the Arab Joint List announced that they will recommend Gadi Eisenkot to President Herzog as their candidate for prime minister. "We made the decision unanimously, following consultations among the components of the list. It was not a simple decision. Despite our determination to topple Netanyahu, the opposition camp led by Eisenkot has yet to show the necessary willingness to confront Netanyahu's path, to fight the incitement against Arab citizens, and to challenge the attempts to undermine the legitimacy of their political choice." "Although Eisenkot already has more recommendations than Netanyahu, we see importance in widening the gap between them. This is a step that strengthens the chances of replacing the government and reduces the possibility of various attempts to form a national unity government that would keep Netanyahu in power, an option Netanyahu is working toward with the support of influential Israeli, regional and international actors."
