Former Likud Knesset Member Moshe Feiglin announced Friday he is launching a new party called “Identity.”
Feiglin lost his bid for re-elected earlier this year after Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu out-maneuvered him and left him in a low rank on the list of candidates.

He served one term in the Knesset after succeeding in the previous election to be elected after several failures. Feiglin headed the Jewish Leadership faction within the Likud party.
Feiglin said his new party will run in the next elections and that its platform will involve a wide sector of voters who will fund Identity with small and private contributions.
