Tawfiq Tubi (Hebrew: תאופיק טובי; 11 May 1922 - 12 March 2011) was a Palestinian-Israeli communist politician who served as a member of Knesset for the Israeli Communist Party and later for the Democratic Front for Peace and Equality.

His life and political work
Tawfiq Toubi was born in Haifa in 1922 into an Orthodox Christian family. He was educated at the missionary boarding school in Jerusalem, and joined the Palestinian Communist Party in 1941. After the split in the party in 1943, he was one of the founders of the National Liberation League, which initially opposed the partition resolution and approved it after the Soviet Union expressed its support for the resolution.

Since the formation of the Israeli Communist Party in 1948, Tobi served as a member of the Knesset as a party delegate, and later for the Democratic Front for Peace and Equality. He edited Al-Ittihad newspaper, which spoke in his name. Since the fifties, Toubi has been a member of the presidency of the National Peace Committee and the Communist World Peace Council.

After the Kafr Qassem massacre in 1956, Tobi and Mayer Flehner's companion collected testimonies from the injured and published them and presented them to the Knesset. They posted the thread about two weeks after the event. In 1976, he was elected Deputy Secretary-General of the Democratic Front for Peace and Equality, and served as the Secretary-General of the Democratic Front for Peace and Equality in the years 1989-1993.

He announced his resignation from the Knesset in July 1990 as part of a rotation agreement in the Hadash party, after he had been a member of it for 42 years, and he was replaced by Tamar Gujansky. Tobi played an important role in the field of education and schools. He also had a historical role in restoring cohesion between the Palestinian factions in the Palestine Liberation Organization. He was one of the initiators of establishing and establishing the Arab Druze Initiative Committee in 1972.
