Exploring Kahane: The Legacy of Extremism in Israel's History

Are you familiar with "kahane"? Here’s a fascinating look at the complex history of Israel. The term ‘Kahanist’ refers to the supporters of the late radical and racist Rabbi Meir Kahane. In the 1960s, Kahane established and led the Jewish Defence League in the United States before relocating to Israel, where he founded Kach, a racist political party that was ultimately banned. Although he was assassinated in 1990, the impact of his extreme racist beliefs has grown stronger and become more entrenched over time.
