Channel 12 analyst Mohammed Magadli claimed in an interview with Radio 103FM that Netanyahu's associates have held talks since the elections with Ra'am chairman Mansour Abbas and his people, including regarding the "Defendant's Law."

The Likud firmly denied it: "There was not and will not be any contact between Likud and Arab parties that support terror."

This morning (Tuesday), MK Moshe Saada continued to deny the report and said in an interview on Radio 103FM: "It will not happen. I have no part with these people, I don't embrace them, I don't speak to them. There is no such option, it does not exist."

He explained that there is no scenario under which they would form a government with them.

He also addressed Netanyahu's call to form a unity government: "Eisenkot metaphorically crashed into the rock: he has no ability to form a government with any of them. I am saying what Netanyahu said yesterday when he called for a broad national government. Every Zionist party is legitimate, everyone who is with us in the tank is worthy. Chareidim? Certainly."
