Ahmad Tibi, a prominent member of the Joint List, has publicly indicated that his party intends to play an active role in shifting the balance of power in the Knesset after the next election cycle. Tibi stated that the alliance is committed to replacing current Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana, a move intended to grant the opposition greater control over the parliamentary agenda.

Beyond the procedural change of replacing the Speaker, Tibi’s comments suggest a broader strategic shift. He hinted that the Joint List is prepared to take actions that go further than the traditional practice of simply recommending a political rival to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. By suggesting that a minority government could be an option, Tibi is signaling that the Arab-majority alliance may be willing to engage more directly in the formation of a governing coalition, rather than remaining on the political sidelines. This potential shift in strategy could significantly complicate the formation of future governments, as it challenges the standard parliamentary dynamics that have historically excluded the Joint List from formal coalition influence. The Times of Israel reports these intentions as a significant development in the opposition's efforts to regain legislative control.
