From their report:
The Knesset Ethics Committee voted, Tuesday, to suspend Member of Knesset Ahmad Tibi (United Arab List) from everything but voting for a week, starting on Sunday, following complaints by Knesset member Anastassia Michaeli (Yisrael Beiteinu) and other citizens about his recent comments during one-minute Knesset speeches, when he said Michaeli's "plumbing was screwed up." [see below]
Referring to an incident in which Russian-born MK Michaeli splashed Member of Knesset Ghaleb Majadele with a cupful of water, Tibi recited in Hebrew, in sarcastic poetic fashion, "Anastasia grew up in the junk piles of Yisrael Beiteinu, or shall we say Russia Beiteinu. From there it was a short step to suggest the law of the muezzin, who had become a Bibi-Anastasia joint venture, and the unwise use of water, during a time of drought when every drop counts, After all, Israel is drying up, but is really not ashamed."
His speech ended with a vulgar Hebrew hint at an Arabic curse referring to a mother's anatomy.
Even Haaretz was circumspect:
Following the incident, Tibi read a short poem poking fun at Michaeli, the words of which were...
"...Anastasia, who has run amok, / Poured water on her colleague / And thus I will call the baby by its name: Kos Amok [literally, a 'glass of madness', but a play on words on an Arabic profanity].
Amok in Arabic is "your mother's".
But that's not all. At 30 seconds, Tibi can be heard saying, in Hebrew,
aval Anastasia, she'nidfakah la ha-installatzia
which is also a vulgar reference in that it translates
but Anastaisa, whose plumbing (which refers, in slang Hebrew, to her reproductive organs) has been screwed...
and we know that she is the mother of eight and "She has a kosher home, she says, is careful not to mix meat and milk, and has enrolled her brood in state religious schools".

I would suggest to Tibi to watch out not for Anastasia but her husband.
