Nel 2000 si unisce al partito Unione nazionale, che si è formato in seguito alla fusione di Moledet con altri due partiti. Dal 1983 al 1985, Elon presta servizio come emissario dell’Agenzia ebraica negli Stati Uniti. E’ fondatore e presidente del College talmudico “Beit Orot”. Elon è stato anche ministro del turismo dal 2001 al 2004 dopo l’assassinio del ministro precedente, Rehavam Ze'evi, avvenuto in un hotel di Gerusalemme. Nel 2004 il Primo Ministro Ariel Sharon respinge dal governo il partito di Elon, a causa dell’opposizione manifestata al piano di disimpegno dalla Striscia di Gaza messo in atto da Sharon che ha prodotto l’evacuazione di tutti gli insediamenti nella Striscia e di alcuni insediamenti nel nord del West Bank. E' presidente della Fondazione Knesset Christian Allies Caucus. Orit Noked - Vice ministro dell’industria, del commercio e del lavoro (partito Labor) Orit Noked è nata in Israele nel 1952 e vive a Kibbutz Shefayim.

Nelle elezioni del 2006 per entrare alla Knesset è al dodicesimo posto nella lista dell’Yisrael Beiteinu.

Mantiene il suo seggio nelle elezioni del 2009, nel quale arriva all’ottavo posto nella lista del partito. E' presidente del Knesset Christian Allies Caucus, oltre che presidente della Commissione affari costituzionali e giustizia della Knesset. Josh Reinstein - Direttore del Knesset Christian Allies Caucus E’ arrivato in Israele solo sette anni fa, conoscendo appena la letteratura dei classici in ebraico e non avendo alcuna idea sul sistema politico del suo nuovo Paese. Oggi, dopo un’ascesa costante nei partiti di centro-destra, dedica le sue giornate ad incontri con legislatori e chierici, ministri e membri della Knesset. La sua missione è di promuovere il sostegno a Israele tra i cristiani di tutto il mondo. Reinstein ha una forte impronta sionista, provenendo da una famiglia ebrea polacca. Il suo bisnonno era un Hassid Gérer, e i suoi nonni paterni sono sopravvissuti all’Olocausto, incontrandosi proprio ad Auschwitz. Dopo la guerra i nonni si trasferiscono in Canada, quando il padre è ancora bambino. Anche sua nonna materna è stata ad Auschwitz ed è l’unica della sua grande famiglia a sopravvivere. Anche lei emigra a Toronto, dove nasce la madre di Josh Reinstein. Lui nasce a Toronto, ma cresce a Dallas, dove suo padre era il presidente della locale Organizzazione sionista d’America. Gil Hoffman - Giornalista del Jerusalem Post Gil Hoffman è il corrispondente capo della pagina politica del Jerusalem Post, nonché analista. Grazie alle ottime connessioni con i leader israeliani e palestinesi, Hoffman ha intervistato le maggiori figure del panorama politico di Israele ed è stato intervistato dai principali media al mondo; è regolarmente interpellato come analista dalla CNN, da Al-Jazeera e da altre tivù di informazione. Chiamato “l’uomo più ottimista in Israele” dalla stessa televisione israeliana, gli scritti di Hoffman e le sue apparizioni tivù svelano i retroscena e gli umori della politica israeliana. Hoffman, che è nato a Chicago, si è laureato con lode alla Northwestern University’s School di giornalismo e prima di trasferirsi in Israele ha scritto per il Miami Herald e l’Arizona Republic. Vive a Gerusalemme con sua moglie, una figlia e un bimbo piccolo..

The fellows participate in a weekly workshop, where they meet senior economic and government professionals, business leaders, and top academics from Israel and abroad. They also participate in an accredited MBA course that awards three graduate-level academic credits that are transferable to other universities in Israel.

It deals with the implementation and enforcement of the Law for Restricting Weight in the Modeling Industry, 5772-2012,1 commonly known as 'The Modeling Law', or 'The Photoshop Law', which entered into force on January 1, 2013.2 Summary The goal of the Law for Restricting Weight in the Modeling Industry, 5772-2012 (hereinafter: the Law), as written in the explanatory notes to the Bill, is "to diminish the ramifications of exposure to advertising that presents male and female models, as well as known and famous persons, who are exceptionally thin, on the creation of a low body image and the development of eating disorders in Israel", and this on the basis of the assumption that the modeling industry is one of the social- cultural factors that are liable to contribute to the development of eating disorders.

Chancellor Angela Merkel of the Federal Republic of Germany and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of the State of Israel chaired the consultations and noted with satisfaction the progress made since the last consultations held in Jerusalem on 31 January 2011. The sides discussed a broad range of topics of mutual interest and are- as of cooperation with a particular focus on innovation, education and sustainability. They reiterated their joint objective to further solidify the unique relationship and close ties between Germany and Israel through cooperation and political measures which look towards the future while recognizing Germany's awareness of its historic responsi- bility towards Israel. They reconfirmed their pledge to never forget the horrors of the past and to preserve the memory of the Shoah for future generations as present and meaningful through education, and their strong commit- ment to human rights and to the fight against all forms of anti- Semitism and racism. In this context, they also strongly reaffirmed that any challenge to the right of the State of Israel to exist as a nation, any calls for the destruction of the State of Israel and any denial of the Shoah are totally unacceptable.

A Comparative Perspective This policy paper examines the representation of women in Israeli politics from a comparative perspective. Its guiding premise is that women’s representation in politics, and particularly in legislative bodies, is of great importance in that it is tightly bound to liberal and democratic principles. According to some researchers, it is also important because female legislators Policy Paper 10E advance “female” issues more than male legislators do.

  • Wer Bewirbt Sich Um Die 120 Sitze in Der 19. Knesset?
    Stand: 3. Januar 2013 Wer bewirbt sich um die 120 Sitze in der 19. Knesset? Am Donnerstag, den 6. Dezember, endete um 22.00 Uhr die Frist zur Einreichung von Listen für die Wahl zur 19. Knesset, die am 22. Januar 2013 stattfinden wird. Insgesamt 34 Parteien oder Listen – darunter auch eine grüne und eine Piraten-Partei – bewerben sich um die 120 Mandate. 1 Die Listenbildung blieb bis zuletzt spannend: • HaAtzmaut („Die Unabhängigkeit“), eine vom gegenwärtigen Verteidigungsminister Ehud Barak geführte Abspaltung von der sozialdemokratischen Awoda, tritt nicht zur Wahl an. • Kurz vor Ablauf der Meldefrist lief das der Awoda angehörende Knesset-Mitglied Amir Peretz zur „Tsipi-Livni-Partei“ HaTnua („Die Bewegung“) über. • Die zentristischen oder moderat linken Parteien und Gruppierungen Awoda, Jesch Atid, Kadima und HaTnua schafften es nicht, sich auf eine gemeinsame Liste zu einigen, die als geschlossener Block der in Umfragen weit vorn liegenden gemeinsamen Liste von Likud und Israel Beitenu hätte gegenübertreten können. 2 So bleibt das Oppositionslager gespalten und startet mit wechselseitigen Schuldzuweisungen in die heiße Phase des Wahlkampfs. Amtsinhaber Netanjahu ist mit keinem/keiner Herausforderer/Heraus- forderin konfrontiert, der/die eine zahlenmäßig starke Truppe hinter sich vereinigt. Das israelische „Central Elections Committee“ 3 (hebräisch: Va’adet HaBehirot HaMerkasit) ist nach dem Wahlgesetz von 1969 4 damit beauftragt, die Wahlen zur nächsten Knesset durchzuführen. Nach Art. 16 und 17 des Wahlgesetzes besteht das Zentrale Wahl-Komitee aus Repräsentanten der Knesset-Fraktionen. Den Vorsitz führt ein Richter des Obersten Gerichtshofs. Zu den Aufgaben des Gremiums gehören die Genehmigung von Listen, Fragen der Wahlkampffinanzierung, die Veröffentlichung des Wahlergebnisses und die Entscheidung über Wahlanfechtungen.
