Jewish-Arab Brotherhood

Jewish-Arab Brotherhood

Jewish-Arab Brotherhood ( _he. אחווה יהודית-ערבית, "Ahva Yehudit-Aravit") was a short-lived, one-man political party in Israel.

Background

The party was formed during the sixth Knesset after the breakup of the Israeli Arab party, Cooperation and Development, which had formed less than six months previously as a merger of Cooperation and Brotherhood and Progress and Development.

Former Progress and Development MK Elias Nahale returned to his original party, but then had a change of heart and created the Jewish-Arab Brotherhood. Before the 1969 elections Nahale merged the party into Cooperation and Brotherhood, thus effectively swapping parties with Jabr Moade, who had begun the session as a member of Participation and Brotherhood, then left to set up the Druze Party before joining Progress and Development.
