Politics of Israel

The politics of Israel is dominated by Zionist parties. They traditionally fall into three camps, the first two being the largest: Labor Zionism (social democrat), Revisionist Zionism (conservative) and Religious Zionism. There are also several non-Zionist Orthodox religious parties, non-Zionist left-wing groups, as well as non-Zionist and anti-Zionist Israeli Arab parties.

Political conditions

Golda Meir, Prime Minister of Israel from 1969 to 1974, once joked that "in Israel, there are 3 million prime ministers". The particular version of proportional representation used, in which the whole country is a single constituency, encourages the formation of a large number of political parties, many with very specialized platforms, and often advocating the tenets of particular interest-groups. The prevalent balance between the largest parties means that the smaller parties can have strong influence disproportionate to their size. Due to their ability to act as tie breakers, they often use this status to block legislation or promote their own agenda, even contrary to the manifesto of the larger party in office.

  • Understanding Israel's Political Parties: From Bibi to Abbas

    On June 13th, Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid managed to form a government, but how did we get here? Politics are complicated, especially Israeli politics. Why do Israelis keep having elections? What parties make up the Knesset — Israel’s parliament? A party needs at least 61 seats to form a government, but no single party has ever come close to winning that many seats, which means that parties have had to team up with one another to form a “Coalition Government.” Currently, getting those 61 seats has proved more of a challenge than ever, causing Israelis to go to the polls four times in three years. Will the Lapid-Bennett government last? This video will help you make heads and tails of what you read in the news - the issues at hand, the various politicians, what “right” and “left” even ...

  • Israeli Politician Yair Lapid Asks For Mother's Forgiveness Over Raucous Parliament Session

    The Israeli politician who was the driving force in forming the country's new government called off a planned speech to parliament on Sunday, saying he was ashamed that his 86-year-old mother had to witness the raucous behavior of his opponents. In a brief speech, Yair Lapid said he wanted to "ask for forgiveness from my mother." "I wanted her to be proud of the democratic process in Israel. Instead she, along with every citizen of Israel, is ashamed of you and remembers clearly why it's time to replace you," he said. Lapid led the efforts to form the new coalition, which is expected to be approved later Sunday. He is expected to be Israel's new foreign minister for two years, and then become prime minister in a rotation agreement for the final two years of the government's term. Subs...

Ariel Kahana, Diplomatic Correspondent for Israel Hayom, analyzes the current political situation in Israel after Idit Silman defected and explains what's next in the Israeli political scene.  "The anger in the Yemina party is mostly related to Benny Gantz because he is freezing the construction in the settlements, he is letting the Palestinians build their territories with no limits, and so on," he says.

The Israeli politician who was the driving force in forming the country's new government called off a planned speech to parliament on Sunday, saying he was ashamed that his 86-year-old mother had to witness the raucous behavior of his opponents. In a brief speech, Yair Lapid said he wanted to "ask for forgiveness from my mother." "I wanted her to be proud of the democratic process in Israel. Instead she, along with every citizen of Israel, is ashamed of you and remembers clearly why it's time to replace you," he said. Lapid led the efforts to form the new coalition, which is expected to be approved later Sunday. He is expected to be Israel's new foreign minister for two years, and then become prime minister in a rotation agreement for the final two years of the government's term.

Understanding Israel's Political Parties: From Bibi to Abbas

On June 13th, Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid managed to form a government, but how did we get here? Politics are complicated, especially Israeli politics. Why do Israelis keep having elections? What parties make up the Knesset — Israel’s parliament? A party needs at least 61 seats to form a government, but no single party has ever come close to winning that many seats, which means that parties have had to team up with one another to form a “Coalition Government.” Currently, getting those 61 seats has proved more of a challenge than ever, causing Israelis to go to the polls four times in three years. Will the Lapid-Bennett government last? This video will help you make heads and tails of what you read in the news - the issues at hand, the various politicians, what “right” and “left” even means anymore, and how one man — Benjamin Netanyahu — managed to eclipse even the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Politics of Israel

The politics of Israel is dominated by Zionist parties. They traditionally fall into three camps, the first two being the largest: Labor Zionism (social democrat), Revisionist Zionism (conservative) and Religious Zionism. There are also several non-Zionist Orthodox religious parties, non-Zionist left-wing groups, as well as non-Zionist and anti-Zionist Israeli Arab parties.

Political conditions

Golda Meir, Prime Minister of Israel from 1969 to 1974, once joked that "in Israel, there are 3 million prime ministers". The particular version of proportional representation used, in which the whole country is a single constituency, encourages the formation of a large number of political parties, many with very specialized platforms, and often advocating the tenets of particular interest-groups. The prevalent balance between the largest parties means that the smaller parties can have strong influence disproportionate to their size. Due to their ability to act as tie breakers, they often use this status to block legislation or promote their own agenda, even contrary to the manifesto of the larger party in office.
