Barakeh: Burning FM's picture on Land Day is legitimate

MK Mohammad Barakeh (Hadash) said on Wednesday that burning pictures of Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, as Arab protesters did at a Land Day protest in Lod, is legitimate.
In an interview with Israel Radio, he said that "burning a picture of Lieberman is a legitimate expression of protest against a party that challenges the basic existence of the Arab population."
According to Barakeh, "the only policy the government has towards the Arab public is racist legislation in the Knesset."
