Yanima MK Bezalel Smotrich on Wednesday called on Attorney General Avichai Mendelblit to investigate former Balad lawmaker Jamal Zahalka for incitement over remarks he made Tuesday saying that Arab Israelis "should take actions to end the Israeli occupation, like a revolt in the West Bank."
Zahalka further noted that "100,000 Palestinian can surround a settlement and cut if off from the rest of the world."

In his appeal, Smotrich said that Zahalka's remarks constitute "very clear incitement to violence. If 100,000 Palestinian ever surround a settlement, they will not be chanting slogans calling for peace and harmony. This calls for a criminal investigation."
