Yovel Orgad

Yovel Orgad is a right-wing Yeudi politician, who served as Leader of the Neo-Conservative Yeudish Union (NCYU) from 4382 to 4396.

Political career
Orgad founded the NCYU in 4382 as a strong moralistic and neoconservative political party, to the right of the already-existent Kadima Beiteynu. He received the support of much of the religious and military lobby in Beiteynu for his views. During his term as party leader, he gained a reputation as a critic of pacifism and socialism. He has been quite divisive with his rhetoric, for instance by calling conscientious objectors "cowards" and openly attacking the Beiteynu Tax Party in the Knesset for proposing a minimum wage.

However, Orgad has led the NCYU to a parliamentary plurality, and maintained a stable seat count throughout his leadership. Orgad was also a presidential candidate in four presidential elections. He came 2nd with 42.34% of the vote in the run-off in 4385, 2nd with 27.81% of the vote in 4389, 3rd with 25.53% of the vote in 4393, and 2nd with 40.38% of the vote in the run-off in 4395.
