According to the Hebrew radio, the Knesset is not allowed for to ban MKs during the general elections.

Palestinians in Israel believe that the legislation is aimed at suspending any Palestinian MK who criticizes Israel for its continuing occupation and its treatment of Palestinians in Israel as second-class citizens.
