MK Talab El-Sana (United Arab List-Ta'al) on Sunday called the residents of Akko "nothing but right-wing instigators, dripping their poison and trying to drive Arabs away from the mixed cites." He told a Knesset Internal Affairs Committee meeting probing Jewish-Arab rioting during last Thursday's Yom Kippur rioting in the northern port city, "People like that will murder coexistence."
El-Sana called on the police to find the people responsible for the torching of an Arab home in the northern city on Saturday night.
