zionist asra families stirred up the knesset meeting. a group of families of zionists arrested in gaza today entered the meeting of the finance committee of the knesset and demanded the release of their children. they shouted to the members of the meeting so that our children don't come back, we won't let them breathe and while they are there they should not be here. zionist evenings also sat in front of netanyahu's residence, despite netanyahu's promise to release the prisoners and at least after. 108 days of the war, the zionist regime has not been able to get its 130 prisoners out of gaza alive. the knesset also has the matter of reviewing the vote of no confidence in benjamin netanyahu's government due to its inability to return the prisoners. channel 13 of the zionist regime's tv has announced a survey, according to which more than half of the zionists believe that netanyahu is for profit. seeking to continue the war and if elections are held in the current situation , only 32% will vote for him. we will continue the conversation wi

this was the confrontation of asra zionist families in the knesset. we saw today that they entered the meeting of the knesset financial affairs committee and came to say the same thing that you said and we are in the same pictures.

what is the form of a zionist in the knesset or the parliament of this regime ?lain to us a little and what other things they might do to topple netanyahu . good morning. good morning to you and all dear viewers . it has 120 seats between 12 parties spring. the most important party to win in the divided elections is the likud party, which with 32 seats and with a coalition that somehow struck with other parties and won 61 seats, mr. netanyahu was able to sit in the position of power and the next party of the party is a kind of faction . it is the opposition that somehow allocated 24 seats to itself, so in this war of people. another important thing for other parties to win the war is to somehow join an alliance like mr. gaddy eisencode, like mr. gantz and other people in the discussion is that the power, considering that the opposition wing is the second party that has the most money in a way the zionist regime definitely has powers of influence and debates, mr. yairi lapid, the honorable leader. the opposition has somehow prepared a legal draft to oust netanyahu

what do you mean "my own knesset" decided that it's unacceptable?nd they decided you should be punished. yeah, they decided — this is part of mccarthyism. when other members of parliament are deciding for me what can be said and what cannot be said when i'm a parliamentarian, i have immunity — parliamentarian immunity — to give me a space to speak up. and now it's taken from me by this decision by members of parliament who are on the other side of the political map. this is democracy? sorry, i was elected in order to speak out what i believe in. i believe that military actions cannot be any solution for political problem, and i've said that — that's why i'm against the war. i'm against getting civilians involved in a blood cycle, and i will speak out every time if they are israelis or if they are palestinians. so, i think that the knesset is not a school that they can tell me what i can say and what cannot be said. i'm supposed to do my duty in order to warn that there are things not to be done, and they are not going to bring any security — neither

alliances with members of the knesset to bring down the netanyahu government?anyahu's government at the time to an end. are you seeking to be part of such an alliance now? i have to say very clearly that we have always warned the public from netanyahu being our prime minister. we always went against him as a prime minister. we believe that he is bringing, in his policies and in his ideology, disasters. and we believe that it's better that he finish his position not today, not tomorrow, but yesterday. and any attempts to make this government fall down, we will be for sure part of it. this is very well—known, our position, especially that we are — me and my colleagues — are a part of the only jewish arab palestinian party in israel, and we are the only ones jewish—arab—palestinian party in israel, and we are the only ones who are very clear in our policy against occupation, against war, and against damaging or hurting any civilians. but isn't the very difficult truth for you, as a long—term believer that the only solution for these two peoples — israelis and pale

august zionist knesset.s year in reviewing part of the bill judicial changes had abolished the rule of unreasonableness. based on this rule, the judges of the supreme court of this regime could invalidate the cabinet's decrees on the grounds that they are irrational. the cancellation of this rule in the knesset led to large protests in the occupied territories. the supreme court of the zionist regime had postponed commenting on this matter until last night. finally , the minister of justice of the zionist regime also said that this decision of the supreme court is in conflict with the spirit of unity needed in times of war, but yair lapid, the leader of the opposition of the zionist regime, said that he supported the decision of the supreme court to abrogate its powers against netanyahu's will. we do. iran and 86 other countries have declared crimes against the zionist regime, the head of the red crescent said that the case of the zionist regime's crimes in gaza, including the attack on the medical centers o

>> may be in light of what we saw in the knesset today, maybe it is internal politics.'m wrong. i hope they are seriously wanting and putting as a priority the release of the rest of the hostages, but if i may explain a bit of the background why i'm very skeptical about the intent of this offer. in explaining it, i want to stress i'm not endorsing it, but the reason was to put pressure on israeli authorities to release prisoners who would not have a chance of seeing the light of day outside prison. there is no review system of palestinian prisoners, especially if they have been convicted of people with blood on their hands, whether the case was proven or not proven. there is no review system. again, i stress not endorsing it, but the reason of forcing a review was by taking soldiers and holding them hostage. if that is the case, i can't see the offer on the table now, the proposed offer, is going to be accepted because what gaza needs at the moment is not a two months cease-fire. 2.3 million people are facing a human catastrophe. god knows how many will die as a result

violent protests at the knesset calls for the violent overthrow of the government. i mean, you go to the first lebanon war where the protests were way bigger, way bigger than the protests we saw over judicial reform over these last few months. they just there was no social media. so people weren't aware of of what was going on. so in every period in israeli history, you have these moments, this one was bad in 2023. but we argued there's something here that holds the country together and there's something the west could learn from. and then october 7th happened and then we watched out of this horror, this unbelievable, unbearable horror, the country actually did come back together. so what separates israel from other countries specifically democratic countries at a time of war? because we saw in the u.s. rally around the flag in the first gulf war, we surely saw that after 911. how does israel differentiate from what we've seen in what we experienced here in the u.s.? so we did see it after. the the first gulf war. we saw it less after 911. we saw it immediately afte

the knesset held up signs that said you will not sit here while they die there. is there any discernible movement on hostage talks with hamas? >> not really at the moment. but certainly, you saw the anger there inside the knesset building of the financial committee meeting where family members went in and very passionately made the case for their loved ones being held by hamas inside gaza. some of the family members did meet with the prime minister and he said he had an initiative. but it has been very clear. he's not about to cut a deal with them which is, give us all our prisoners back in your prison, end the war forever and for good, and then you can have the hostages back. his prime minister has said absolutely no to that. so there really doesn't seem to be movement. i guess one piece of movement in the puzzle that keeps prime minister netanyahu where he is in government and doesn't bring about the collapse of the government, that would trigger the kind of election you're talking about if the very hardline right-wing politician who is the security minister he

who took responsibility for this assassination on behalf of israel is danny danon, a member of the knesset foreign affairs and security committee , who told the army, shabak mossad about the assassination of al-arouri. he congratulated in beirut. in a situation where the level of alertness in israel, especially in the northern regions, increased found and the doors of the shelters were opened in haifa, the israeli cabinet postponed its meeting that was supposed to be held after this assassination and it was convened a meeting of the israeli war cabinet to assess the situation. at the time of the assassination of saleh al-arouri, a state of alert was declared throughout israel. it is true that the officials of the internal front have not issued any special recommendations, but reports indicate that shelters have been opened in haifa and other cities. the cabinet meeting was supposed to discuss the conditions after the end of the war. check in gaza after the assassination of saleh al-arwari , the number two man, was postponed and instead the war cabinet convened a meeting to examine israel's

finally, this resolution of the knesset was rejected by the vote of 8 out of 15 judges of the supreme court. minister of internal security of the zionist regime, itamar benguir, canceled the resolution of the knesset he also called it dangerous and harmful during the war. the minister of justice of the zionist regime also said that this decision of the supreme court contradicts the spirit of unity needed during the war, but yair lapid, the leader of the opposition of the zionist regime, said that we support the decision of the supreme court to abrogate its powers against netanyahu's will. by pulling out the bodies from the debris caused by the 7.16 richter earthquake in japan yesterday, the number of victims of this accident has increased to 13 people and the number of injured people has increased to more than 40 people. as a result of this earthquake that occurred on the first day of the new year in ishikawa and its neighboring provinces, a number of ruined buildings and tens of thousands of homes were cut off. following this earthquake, a tsunami warning was issued and the residents

we have 120 members of the knesset. you want them out. you can hear a whole wide spectrum of opinion. but why don't you quote what my prime minister publicly said last week when he said there is no such policy? there is no such policy to expel palestinians from gaza, to forcibly displace... with the greatest of respect... there's no evidence of such a policy. ..he said that after the opening day of the genocide case at the international court ofjustice. he's under enormous pressure, not least from your very staunchest best friends in the united states. i don't believe that netanyahu has had a single conversation withjoe biden in the last three weeks because the americans are so deeply frustrated with your government and its agenda. i can only say there is no such agenda. it's almost a blood libel. to say that israel wants to forcibly push out of gaza its palestinian population is simply not true. why do so many ministers in your government keep talking about getting the population in gaza out of gaza? you tell me. so, once again, we have

can i ask you how you feel about what went on today at the knesset?e taking it directly to the ministers? absolutely. it should have been... it should have happened on december the 1st. when we heard that the israeli stop to the hostage release situation which was going on for seven days. then they refused the offer that hamas gave them to bring out several women and three old men. and they said that they would not play along with what hamas is doing. i am afraid that my father may have been released already then, so ever since that moment i thought that our only target should be the israeli government, and the prime minister, of course. we now discovered he is actively making it difficult, not to say the least he is not helping but he is making it difficult for negotiations and stating things that can only interfere with it. so the addressing of the prime minister directly is the right thing, but i think, that we should do. of course it should be angry, and it should be shouting and not pleading for help because i think the way we see it they owe us
