Jordan's king delivers pointed public remarks to Pence in wake of Jerusalem decision

[Mosby]

3. Bizarre comments from the arab block leader in the Knesset.

Ayman Odeh, head of the Joint List representing Israel’s Arab parliamentarians, said Sunday that his faction of 13 lawmakers would likely stage a walkout as Pence speaks to Israeli parliament, known as the Knesset, on Monday. “Trump is whimsical, even racist,” said Odeh. “But Pence, with his evangelical ideology is very dangerous. I do not want him to come here, give a speech and we all sit quietly and applaud him,” he said. “There are some people in this country that want to say to him that he is not welcome here. We want peace, with a Palestinian country next to Israel. Sitting quietly and listening to him is giving him legitimization. We want the Americans to know that there are some Israelis who do not see him as legitimate.”

Calling an evangelical christian (pence) dangerous is pretty insulting to millions of christians, I think end times theology is silly, but an israeli arab muslim shouldn't be commenting about how dangerous Christians are in the first place. He's their guest, ffs.
