The Israeli Liberal Party (Hebrew: המפלגה הליברלית הישראלית, romanized: Miflaga Libralit Yisraelit), also known as the Liberal Party in Israel (Hebrew: המפלגה הליברלית בישראל, Miflaga Libralit BeYisrael) was a political party in Israel and one of the forerunners of the modern-day Likud. The party was created by a 1961 merger between the centrist Progressive Party and the General Zionists,[2] forming a right-leaning, middle class-based party.[3][4] The Progressives soon seceded to form the Independent Liberals in 1964.[2]
