MK Moshe Gafni of United Torah Judaism strongly attacked Avigdor Liberman following his remarks.
"We don't remember such anti-Semitism in the Knesset," Gafni said at a faction meeting. "Not even from Ahmed Tibi. This corrupt man knows what we're doing? 'Remove thy shoes from upon thy feet' before you talk about United Torah Judaism and the haredi public. Who are you? Nothing."
