	israelinsider: politics: MK Ahmad Tibi to appeal disqualification from Knesset race (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-18)
		MK Ahmad Tibi (Ta'al) said he would appeal the Central Election Committee's decision on Monday to bar him from running for the Knesset in the upcoming general elections.
		The request to disqualify Tibi was presented by MK Michael Eitan (Likud) who said, "The central issue that was raised was not over political viewpoints, nor public expressions, rather explicit support for the armed struggle of terrorist organizations, and I brought forth numerous examples of this."
		Justice Minister Meir Sheetrit said the decision to disqualify Tibi on the grounds that he supports terrorism was a "mistake." In cases like those of Tibi and Marzel, the CEC should have deferred to the legal positions of Cheshin and Rubinstein, Sheetrit told Israel Radio.

		Tibi reportedly described the Palestinian resistance to the Israeli army's capture of Jenin refugee camp in April as "an act of noble heroism." He denied calling the IDF's actions there a "massacre," but told Army Radio that "war crimes" were committed in the camp.

		He stressed that the fact that MK Tibi is an Arab and not part of the Zionist movement should not be used to disqualify him from participating in the elections.

		Following its vote earlier in the week to prevent Ahmad Tibi from contesting the polls, the decision by Israel’s Central Elections Committee (CEC) to extend the ban to the outspoken legislator Azmi Bishara and his party, the National Democratic Association (NDA) or Balad, comes as no surprise.
		The disqualification of Tibi and Bishara by the CEC, which represents a cross-section of Israeli political parties, “has clarified to the world that Israel’s professed democracy is nothing more than a limited share holding company whose stock is held by Israeli Jews,” the East Jerusalem daily writes.
		The disqualification of Tibi and Bishara by the CEC, and Attorney-General Elyakim Rubinstein, “has uncovered the despicable racist face of the Jewish state, and exposed the fraudulence of Israeli democracy,” it says in its main editorial.

		Furthermore, evidence that Bishara and Tibi have supported terrorist activities is unfounded, and relies on a definition of 'support of terror' that itself violates fundamental rights of freedom of expression.
		First, while condemning the proposed disqualification of Tibi and Bishara from Knesset [Israel Parliament] elections as "undemocratic and violating the rule of law," the press release fails to mention the proposed disqualification of Baruch Mazel (a candidate of the right-wing Jewish party Herut).
		At the time of the elections, the PA was for all intents and purposes at a state of war with Israel and was deemed responsible for a continuing campaign of terror that has killed hundreds of Israeli citizens.

		Of course, in Tibi's claim, dishonesty is extreme and the chutzpah beyond belief.
		Those calling for the dismantling of the Jewish national state on the ground of cultural neutrality have to call for the dismantling of all the democratic nation states in Europe and elsewhere --let alone the Arab nation states, none of which are democratic.
		MK Ahmad Tibi, however, is much, much softer on that issue than many Jewish anti-Zionists.

	israelinsider: politics: MK Taleb A-Sana "legitimizes" Tel Aviv shooting attack
		MK Ahmad Tibi (Ta-al) yesterday requested that Defense Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer release the body of Ali Ibrahim Juliani, the Palestinian gunman who opened fire on soldiers at Tel Aviv's Kirya base on Sunday afternoon.
		Acting on behalf of Juliani's family, Tibi wrote to Ben-Eliezer asking him "to release the body of the young Palestinian shot and killed by soldiers and policemen during the course of a battle waged between them."
		Tibi told ynet today that he is convinced that the action Sunday near the Kirya was, in fact, a "battle." In Tibi's opinion, more important than the terminology used to define the Kirya event was Israel's holding the Palestinian's body, which constituted "additional, inhumane punishment against the family."
