Arab MKs led by Mansour Abbas (Ra'am) and Ahmed Tibi (Hadash-Ta'al) walked out of the Knesset plenum Wednesday evening just before a moment of silence in memory of the late Sen. Lindsey Graham. The MKs said Graham, who died earlier this month, incited genocide. The moment of silence was announced by Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana minutes earlier, as The Zioneer reported. The walkout underscores the political divide over Graham's legacy, which included strong pro-Israel advocacy and controversial statements regarding Palestinians.
