Arab MK: Destroy Israel with numbers

Living in comfort, influence Barakeh labels himself a 'refugee'

Demonstrating a by-now-unsurprising lack of loyalty to the nation where he serves as an elected official, Israeli Arab Knesset Member Mohammed Barakeh Thursday urged the "Palestinians" to hold fast to their "right" to demographically destroy the Jewish state.

Farcically describing himself as a "refugee" after previously claiming Israeli nationality long enogh to become a member of this nation's parliament and reap the benefits associated with that position, Barakeh told "Palestinian" journalists at an event hosted by the Hamas terrorist regime in Ramallah:

"We the refugees must...fight for the right of return."

The so-called "Palestinian right of return" is a policy that even most ultra-lefist Israelis reject, recognizing that it would lead to Israel's demise as a Jewish state.

Barakeh also took the opportunity to slam the use of biblical Hebrew names for locations throughout Israel as an attempt by the Jews to "erase history."
