Arab-Israeli MK Ahmed Tibi (United Arab List-Ra'am Ta'al) declared Wednesday on Channel 2 TV that Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman is guilty of incitement to murder, adding that Lieberman's main problem seems to be Attorney General Menachem Mazuz -- a reference to the current corruption investigation against him.
Tibi made the remark in response to an earlier statement by Lieberman that the Arab-Israeli MK is more dangerous than the Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists combined. Lieberman, chairman of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, had made the comment after Tibi called Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria "a cancerous growth" and called for "cleaning" the region of its entire Jewish presence. Tibi had also told participants at the Fatah convention he was attending in Bethlehem that Israel's Arab population is an inseparable part of the Palestinian people.
