Russian Israeli Knesset (Parliament) member throws cup of water on Arab colleague at height of heated argument
MK Anastassia Michaeli (Yisrael Beiteinu) poured a cup of water on her colleague MK Raleb Majadele (Labor) during an argument that ensued between the two at a heated Knesset Education Committee debate on Monday morning
The argument erupted after MK Danny Danon (Likud) called for the retrenchment of the principal of a school in the Negev town of Arara, who took students on a human rights march held in Tel Aviv last month.
"You are marching against the state," Michaeli shouted at Majadele, who answered back, "shut up." He then added that, "She won't shut me up. This is not Yisrael Beiteinu.( Russian Party) The issue of fascism won't stop here -- I intend on taking this debate to other Muslims who will serve as an example for the State of Israel...
Fascism will not be allowed to take over the house." Michaeli replied that "It is disrespectful to the status of women in the Knesset.
We will discuss the matter in the Ethics Committee."
At a certain point in the argument, as it appeared that Michaeli was about to leave the room to calm down, she poured a cup of water and threw the contents at Majadele. Following that, she left the room with fury.
