Moshe Zalman Feiglin is an Israeli far-right politician, activist, and leader of the libertarian Zionist Zehut party. Born in Haifa, Israel, to parents Ya'akov Zvi Feiglin and Esther Feiglin, his ancestors immigrated from Imperial Russia during the First Aliyah in the late 19th century, founding settlements such as Mishmar HaYarden, Hadera, and Kinneret. His grandfather was the first child born in Metula, and his father served in the Jewish Settlement Police during the British Mandate era. The family later moved to Rehovot. He attended Rabbi Haim Druckman's Yeshivat Or Etzion, pursuing religious scholarship and Zionist activism rather than formal academic degrees. Feiglin served in the IDF Engineering Corps during national service, participated in the 1982 Lebanon War, and extended his service by one year as a career soldier, attaining the rank of captain. He owned and operated a construction company specializing in rope rappelling techniques. Politically, he co-founded the Zo Artzeinu protest movement in 1993 with Shmuel Sackett to oppose the Oslo Accords and established the Manhigut Yehudit (Jewish Leadership) faction in 1996, later integrating it into Likud. He joined Likud in 2000, competed in party primaries, and was elected to the Knesset as a Likud member from 2013 to 2015, serving as Deputy Speaker. He left Likud in January 2015 to form Zehut, led it in the 2019 elections, rejoined Likud in July 2021, and departed again in January 2024 to reestablish Zehut, where he currently advocates right-libertarian policies including marijuana legalization. Feiglin advocates for Israeli sovereignty over the Temple Mount and Palestinian 'voluntary transfer.' He has faced legal controversies, including a 1997 sedition conviction for blocking highways and organizing resistance against the Oslo Accords, resulting in a six-month sentence commuted to community service. In 2008, he was barred from entering the United Kingdom for activities deemed to foment hatred or terrorist violence, with the ban remaining in effect and renewed calls for sanctions in 2025 over Gaza rhetoric. During Operation Protective Edge in 2014 and amid the 2023-2025 Gaza conflict, he made controversial statements accused of advocating genocide, such as 'Gaza should have been reduced to ashes' (2024), 'Erase Gaza completely' (Oct 2023), and 'Every child, every baby in Gaza is an enemy... Not a single Gazan child will be left there' (May 2025), widely condemned by former IDF chiefs and international outlets. Feiglin is married with five children and resides in the Karnei Shomron settlement in the West Bank. He maintains a Telegram channel @m_feiglin.
