Yisrael Beiteinu is an Israeli political party founded in 1999 by Avigdor Liberman after he left the Likud party. Its base of support was originally from immigrants from Eastern Europe and is known for its firm stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The party’s platform emphasizes immigration, Israeli settlements in the West Bank, and defense, aligning with the principles of Zionist leader Vladimir Jabotinsky. A key feature of Yisrael Beiteinu’s ideology is the requirement of loyalty to the Jewish state and national service as conditions for Israeli citizenship.
