Israeli Arab journalist libels Israel for Arab-sector crime
Text on screen: "Increase in crime in Arab society within the Green Line (i.e., Palestinian term for Israel)... 100 murdered since the start of the year [2026]."
Israeli Arab journalist Suheil Diab: "This crime [in Israeli Arab society] is not only organized but also politically directed, meaning there are political circles interested in this crime... The issue is not related to social development or internal social and cultural reasons. The main reason is the political support for spreading crime, for the unlimited distribution of weapons. The [Israeli] goal is to dismantle the Arab public from within, so that it won't take an interest in the big issues, its people's issues, national issues, daily issues, equality issues, and also so that this society won't take part in the major changes in Israeli society."
