KM Hanin Zuabi underwent a show trial by a kangaroo court


What took place at the Knesset House Committee had nothing to do with a democratic discussion or debate.

The thuggish assault of Knesset members upon KM Hanin Zuabi. like the thuggish offensive of "Im Tirtzu" on The NewIsrael Fund, and like the attack of street thugs on Uri Avnery at Tel-Aviv's Ibn Gvirol Street, is part of a multiple nationalist and racist campaign of incitement, aimed at silencing those who raise their voice against the policy of occupation, and to erase any last remnant of democracy in the Sate of Israel.

What took place at the Knesset House Committee had nothing whatsoever to do with a democratic discussion or debate. This was a show trial by a kangaroo court against Knesset Member Hanin Zuabi, a congame in which the result was predetermined. It was not Zuabi who was shamed and humiliated by this disgusting spectacle. It was the Knesset members of the exreme right who shamed and humiliated themselves, the whole Knesset, and the entire State of Israel.
