Yisrael Beiteinu Chairman Avigdor Lieberman on Thursday lashed out at Israeli Arab political parties and said he hoped Arab Knesset members would be executed.

During a Knesset plenum debate, Lieberman said Arab MKs who meet with Hamas leaders "are cooperating with the enemy" and must be tried.

Lieberman, whose party failed to reach a coalition deal with the ruling Kadima party and will remain outside the government, said, "The Second World War ended with the Nuremberg trials and the execution of the Nazi leadership. Not only them, but also those who collaborated with then. I hope that will also be the fate of the collaborators in this house," referring to the Knesset.
