Knesset Education Committee chair MK Zvi Sukkot (Religious Zionism) said Sunday that intimidation and violence attempts will not deter him, and the committee will continue to visit any place requiring parliamentary oversight, regardless of political affiliation or ethnicity. The statement followed a visit, according to N12.
MK Zvi Sukkot (Religious Zionism), chair of the Knesset Education Committee, stated Sunday that intimidation and violence attempts will not deter him, and that the committee will continue to conduct parliamentary oversight visits wherever needed, without distinction between right and left, Jews or Arabs. The statement followed a visit, though the specific location and date were not specified in the report.
Sukkot has previously conducted school inspections in Arab communities, including Umm al-Fahm and East Jerusalem, as The Zioneer has reported. Those visits drew local opposition, including a municipal strike in Umm al-Fahm, and confrontations with Arab MKs. The Education Committee chair maintains that the visits are necessary to ensure educational standards and prevent incitement.
The Zioneer has covered these earlier visits in detail. The current statement reaffirms his commitment to continue the oversight despite threats.
