Israeli media outlets continue to incite against Arab Member of the Knesset Hanin Zoabi against the backdrop of her participation in a pro-Palestine event that was held in the United States recently.
Israeli website Walla said yesterday that Zoabi had filed a request at the Knesset asking for approval for her to travel to the US funded by the Harvard College Palestinian Solidarity Committee and the Palestinian American Community Centre.
The website noted that Zoabi’s request included a number of events but failed to mention the “Israel, Racism and Apartheid” event that was held at Columbia University. The Knesset’s legal counsel approved her trip after finding that there was no legal reason to reject it.
Walla said that during the conference, Zoabi criticised the Israeli government’s policies toward Arab Israelis, pointing out that she is prohibited from saying that she is “Palestinian” and obliged to identify herself as an Israeli even if she is deprived of her rights as an Israeli citizen.
“This is a state conducted as a Zionist racist project, not as a state entity,” Zoabi said at the conference.
