Likud – Party of Netanyahu – Part 1: Kalam Shorts (Teaser)

In this the first part of a miniseries Samuel and Edgar discuss the origins of Likud Party. For the last 30 years the Likud has dominated Israeli politics, and thus set the tone for the international politics of the region, not to mention the question of Palestine.

Today it is an ultra-conservative party with neoliberal economics, bent on making the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories permanent, but what are the roots of the Likud Party? What leading figures shaped its policy, and what does its founding charter actually say about its charachter?

This is part one of a two part series on this political party. To hear the full episode head to patreon.com/kalampodcast and sign up for just $3/month.
