National camp

In Israeli politics, the national camp is a term used to describe an informal coalition of nationalist and religious political parties that since 1977 has frequently cooperated to form governments.[1]

It is led by Likud, and includes parties to its right as well as religious parties. In the past, it has included the National Religious Party and the National Union. Today, other parties considered to be in the national camp include Yisrael Beiteinu, The Jewish Home, Shas and United Torah Judaism.[2][3][4]
