My Israel (Hebrew: ישראל שלי, Yisrael Sheli) is an Israel right wing extra-parliamentary movement. Its website describes it as a "movement for Zionist activity".

About the movement

The movement was founded in early 2010 by Ayelet Shaked and Naftali Bennett, who previously worked together in Benjamin Netanyahu's office. The movement cooperates with the Yesha Council in the fields of logistics and PR. As for September 2011 the movement's Hebrew Facebook page had over 62 thousand subscribers and the English page over 26 thousand.

On May 2011 the movement begun opening branches throughout the country and as for July the branches were opened in Haifa, Natanya, Ra'anana, Tiberias, El'ad, Beersheba, Giv'at Shmuel, Rishon LeZion and Kiryat Bialik.

Activity

The movement deals with PR across the internet and especially social networks, but also arranges protests and demonstrations against what they consider to be activity that is meant to delegitimize Israel by leftist extremist circles and international bodies, as well as anti-Zionist activity in the academy and elsewhere.

The movement is leading a public campaign to change the nature of the Army Radio, claiming that the station is headed by leftists and does not stand with the soldiers in times of war as well as giving a platform to Hamas members and leftists organizations which work against the IDF.

On July 29, 2011 the movement expressed its support for the social justice protests but disapproved of the heads of the protest which they defined as conscientious objectors and post-Zionist leftists who publicly speak against the IDF soldiers. On August 3 the movement's activist participated in a demonstration near the encampment in Rothschild avenue along side with Im Tirtzu, Bnei Akiva and other right wing activists who called for the lowering of the costs of living while expressing their support of PM Netanyahu. On September 1 the movement exposed an online letter from 2002 on which contains Daphni Leef's signature which informs that the signatories refuse to "serve the occupation".
