Following Tuesday’s statement by Avigdor Liberman calling for a suspension of trade between Israel and Israeli Arabs and a boycott against Arab merchants, MK Issawi Frij will turn to the government’s Attorney General with a request to have Liberman investigated for incitement to racism.

According to Frij, “I suggest otherwise. Instead of boycotting Israel’s Arabs, Israeli citizens should boycott Liberman and his racist diatribe. Liberman and his party continue to brutally attack Israeli democracy and Israel’s Arabs with racist and inciting statements.”
