The Jewish National Front, also known as Hayil, is a far-right political party in Israel that was founded in January 2004 by Baruch Marzel. Hayil was founded as the result of a split from Herut - The National Movement, with Marzel, a former Kach politician, leaving Herut due to its poor electoral performance. The party supported the creation of constituencies to replace proportional representation, the transition to a presidential system, an increase in Jewish immigration and a decrease of non-Jewish immigration, Jewish education in public schools, and opposition to territorial cession.
