The Israeli-Arab Joint List faction claims that an "incitement campaign" is being waged against its members, against the backdrop of reports that Knesset members are initiating a condemnation of Israel at the UN General Assembly.

"We represent our electorate and democracy, not the crazy right-wing government ... The evil spirit of national law encourages harm to the Arabs, fascist legislation, the legalization of outposts and the institutionalization of discrimination ... We will continue on our way from every platform until the racist nationality law is abolished," said the party in a statement.
