Conservatism in Israel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Conservatism in Israel is mostly based around upholding Jewish tradition, promotion of forms of Zionism that tend to be more irredentist in nature (i.e. Revisionist and Neo-Zionism, which promote the idea of Greater Israel as compared to Liberal or Labor Zionism, which are supportive of a two-state solution), promoting Israeli national security, maintaining the role of religion and the Rabbinate in the public sphere, support for the free market, and closer ties with the United States.[1] However, a variety of ideological trends exist within Israeli conservatism, and not all hold up every single one of these ideals or points of view.
