The Jerusalem Post reports: Omar Barghouti of the anti-Israel BDS movement, should no longer be permitted to reside in Israel, MK Nava Boker (Likud) wrote to Interior Minister Arye Deri Thursday.

“Barghouti spends most of his time lecturing around the world and calling to isolate Israel and boycott it,” Boker wrote. “I ask you to use your authority to revoke Mr. Barghouti’s permanent residence status.”

The Interior Ministry has, in recent months, revoked citizenship, and permanent residence status from noncitizens, who helped terrorists attack.

Barghouti, who was born in Qatar, grew up in Egypt and married an Israeli-Arab woman, gaining permanent residence status, is studying at Tel Aviv University and has lived in Jaffa and Acre, according to media reports.
