  "account": "Yousef Jabareen, chairman of the Arab-led Joint List party, called for both Jewish and Arab support in the upcoming October elections. At a Hebrew-language campaign launch event in Tel Aviv, Jabareen urged voters to choose between continuing the \"bloodshed\" government led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu or a strong Joint List capable of representing all citizens, regardless of their ethnicity. The Joint List comprises four Arab-led parties: Hadash, Ta'al, and Balad. MK Ahmad Tibi, ranking second on the Knesset slate, predicted the party would secure ten seats and remove Netanyahu from power. Despite polling around seven to eight seats, Joint List advocates for addressing rising Arab crime and promoting equality for Arab citizens. The party's main goal, however, is to oust Netanyahu and figures like National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. Disqualification applications from Otzma Yehudit and Ben-Gvir forced Balad's Sami Abu Shehadeh to drop out of the election, but he was later cleared by the Supreme Court. The party remains optimistic, with Tibi confident in their ability to win seats and bring an end to the current government.",
