Moshe Feiglin returns to Israeli politics in alliance with Smotrich

Moshe Feiglin, a far-right politician who spent years on the fringes of Israeli politics, has successfully secured the second spot on Bezalel Smotrich's electoral slate. This political comeback significantly increases his chances of attaining a senior ministerial position. Feiglin was previously ousted from the Likud party by Benjamin Netanyahu due to his fundamentalist views. This new alliance between Feiglin and Smotrich signals a shift in the alignment of right-wing forces in Israel. Analysts suggest that this position could strengthen his influence in the decision-making processes of a future government. However, his inclusion on Smotrich's list remains a subject of widespread debate among political observers.
