Mansour Abbas

"This government (24th Knesset) is dependent on us (United Arab List) and on our decision. And if there is a decision that contradicts our national principles and our religion (Islam), we will not be there."

"I am satisfied with the process we started. We are inside (the Knesset). Now is the time to know how to play the game. That means improving our steps and finding solutions to problems."

"The State of Israel was born as a Jewish state, and it will remain one."

"We are equal partners the whole way, part of the coalition, for the first time in the State of Israel. We are compromising to solve the Arab society's problems."
