It is LONG-established (here on Wikipedia, and elsewhere) that Likud is a center-right political party. There are certainly sources that describe it as right-wing which is an umbrella term for anything right of center, which includes center-right politics. That is what it is and it should be included. Just as the Republican Party and Liberal Party of Australia are center right parties. Only recently have some users (whose good faith, I am disappointed to say, I question) have gone on what it appears to be a smear campaign to include the words "right-wing" as much as possible. Reasons written by these editors include things along the lines of "Center right in comparison to whom?" A BBC article outlines the makeup of the parites in the Knesset (describing them as right, left, centrist, religious, etc.). It describes Likud as centre right. An AFP chart showing the makeup of the parliament, drew a half-circle pie chart, with Likud on the right side closest to the center, immediately to the right of Labor and Kadima. A "Fact File" by the largest media corporation in Israel goes into describe the main platform of every major party in Israel. Using words like center-left for the Labor Party, left for Meretz, and what do you know, center right for Likud. So there's that comparison.
Others are "Given current events, it is debatable that they are center right." According to whom? Certainly no significant source (or even an insignificant one I am yet to see). Or just "No way they are center", without any source. To make a long story short: Likud is accepted to be a center-right political party in Israel. The end. -- Shamir1 ( talk) 22:54, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the sources! It might be worth noting that in these elections specifically, Likud might be sometimes dubbed more righist than it is because it ran jointly with the Ahi, which is not part of the Likud and thus not relevant to this article. -- Ynhockey ( Talk) 23:33, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
Two words: Avigdor Lieberman. Stop your "center-right" bullshit, i reckon everyone wants to be center because its trendy and because it prevents the "fear of extrems", but when you appoint a racist as a minister, you're not "center" anymore. I could say "Useless massac....sorry", i mean i could say "Cast Lead" too, isn't it? And as someone noticed, Likud is right-wing even for....UK. So i don't even have to give the French classification for this party. It's like saying the republicans are Center and the democrats Left, no one with even the slightest bit of serious would believe you. 161.73.55.141 ( talk) 03:03, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
My initial edit [1] was based on just the previous diff that looked incorrect, based on my knowledge of pre-Kadima Likud; I am however, less enlightened concerning internal political dynamics in the Bibi era, following the demise of the previous Herut generation. Things change. The edit summary states why I reverted it. My next edit [2] was justified and ref'd to the same source given for the opposite view. I don’t want to argue; I want to edit. My third edit [3] was to meant to defuse it, but also add my two ref’d cents; on BBC, Bibi had just left Peres’s office, and the edit was sourced to an existing ref. I then read and edited critically further thru the page; it seems there is a lot of fluff and little meat. Then I moved on. Upon returning, I find my two ref’d cents were deleted under questionable pretense, based on the edit summary, but that another editor had arrived. I will generally leave this ‘center-right’ fight to others, but consideration of a ref’d American government pov should be included in the discussion, and I will tend to protect its inclusion. This is NPOV, I believe, and I re-inserted it with quotes.
Though not invited, this discussion raises some common points, which I would like to be discussed. I guess the first is why unbiased American government (not political) sources might not be considered important also. Can an American source be that --- they certainly put their money where their mouth is. I don’t know, but their opinions are certainly easily RS’d, particularly with regard to Likud and where they see them as particularly “right”, compared to whom and sometimes why. A second point is the 'source spectrum' from which the term “center” and the 'source spectrum' from which the term “right” are derived, as noted above. In some general terms they could be divided into things economic and every day life and things political with both domestic and international dimensions. I understand there are also many things specifically Israeli and/or Jewish, which I can not fully comprehend, but note some have remained unresolved since the Haskalah, American Jewish assimilation, and the utter failure of a similar attempt in Europe.
As a non-Jewish foreign editor, which might be different than those here, the political side, particularly international, aspects of Likud seem more important in the big picture than they are currently indicated. My personal bias is that Likud tends to earn ‘centrist’ cover from specific domestic economic issues (e.g. non-socialist), but seems to secularly or politically pick and choose on religious issues, as alluded above. I am sure internal sources define the details best, but these issues are often completely absent or replaced by fluff, as they are in America. That is not to say these are unimportant however, as many international RSs attest. One item included not once in the current Likud article is the term Eretz Israel, as well as that specific spelling, which is documented in major English media to the period of Begin’s ‘77 Likud victory. That is said to differentiate the phrase from Eretz Yisrā'el,which should not to be confused with Medīnat Yisrā'el, but absolutely is, including Likud. Another item is the extremely poor link to Revionism hidden in the lower text, but I assume it may be related to the OR currently residing in the past tense usage in the lede here. That appears incorrect, based on WP:Lede, as well as appearing pov’edly mis-leading. I hope this helps explain why I completely agree with #57. It is another RS’able POV that should not be excluded on what seems apparent ownership or other issues.
Since I see my two cents has been deleted again, I hope I will receive a more reasoned collaborative response rather than just an unreasonable deletion. Regards, CasualObserver'48 ( talk) 07:57, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
Personally, I think it is more accurate to call it a right-wing party rather than a centre-right party. Surely right-wing includes both centre-right and far right and it is therefore more neutral and less contentious to use the more general term if there is disagreement? BobFromBrockley ( talk) 16:33, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
Shouldn't it be described as a far-right party, not center-right or just right?
Should we be using the descriptor of "secular" so prominently in the lead, given its only supported by one citation from 2008? We have other ideologies given for the party, most of which are cited with multiple sources that we could use in the lead instead. This seems to be placing a lot of weight and reliance on a singular and fairly old source when we have better cited alternatives. Helper201 ( talk) 23:50, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
The party has moved much to the right under Netanyahu and is almost never cited as "centre-right" these days. I think it should be simply described as right-wing, the party is not far off from Yamina which this wiki describes as "right-wing to far-right". — Preceding unsigned comment added by AWorldThatNeverExisted ( talk • contribs) 06:25, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
I disagree, I think there are a lot of center-right factions within Likud. Center-right-to-right-wing is fine policy wise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C7:C09E:ED01:61C1:6F65:7371:65E3 ( talk) 00:06, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

It’s not immediately clear why the following statement is relevant to the “Palestinians” section:
“However, it has also been the party that carried out the first peace agreements with Arab states. For instance, in 1979, Likud Prime Minister
Menachem Begin signed the
Camp David Accords with
EgyptianPresident
Anwar al-Sadat, which returned the
Sinai Peninsula (occupied by Israel in the
Six-Day War of 1967) to Egypt in return for peace between the two countries.”
My suggestion is to either remove this statement, or replace section header with “Palestinians and Other Arab Nationals” Blockkay ( talk) Blockkay ( talk) 14:38, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
There needs to be an addition to the article pertaining to Likud under the “Culture” section. This is an important topic that is disturbingly (and likely purposefully) absent from the article at this time. It need to be unlocked so that relevant information can be added by myself or others with sourced and important information. Utahcountypiano ( talk) 22:55, 26 February 2024 (UTC)

The phrase “the Arabs” is used to vaguely refer to some of Israel’s neighbors.
“…reaching agreements with the Arabs…”
The term is extremely vague in this context, also inaccurate and mildly racist.
This should be revised to refer to the specific nation (in this case Egypt.) The agreement the Likud made was with the Egyptians and the Egyptian government, not all Arabs.
Furthermore,
“…suspicion of neighboring Arab nations' intentions…”
is again unnecessary, overly vague and racist. All of Israel’s immediate neighbors are Arabic speaking countries. The only non-Arabic speaking neighbors anywhere close are Turkey and Iran - the Likud are also suspicious of them.
Adding “Arab” makes it less accurate and more racist. 2601:152:800:11A0:A93B:F2B6:51F3:EA0F ( talk) 16:03, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

It seems that someone has changed Likud's political position to "right-wing to far-right". I can find no sources that call Likud a far-right party, nor does this article have any sources saying as much. Either A. It should be listed as only right-wing or B. The proper sources should be added to justify this change Sutapurachina ( talk) 00:39, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

My suggestion is to either remove this statement, or replace section header with “Palestinians and Other Arab Nationals” Blockkay ( talk) Blockkay ( talk) 14:38, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
There needs to be an addition to the article pertaining to Likud under the “Culture” section. This is an important topic that is disturbingly (and likely purposefully) absent from the article at this time. It need to be unlocked so that relevant information can be added by myself or others with sourced and important information. Utahcountypiano ( talk) 22:55, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
The lead gives the party name in Hebrew, but doesn't explain why the party symbol is mem-chet-lamed when mem and chet aren't in the name. Is someone who knows more able to add this? — OwenBlacker (he/him; Talk) 10:22, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
Could someone remove the entry for "Anthem"?- it is no such thing, just a one time jingle used for election videos, a long time ago (when Sharon was still the party leader) Kentucky Rain24 ( talk) 01:07, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
The phrase “the Arabs” is used to vaguely refer to some of Israel’s neighbors.
“…reaching agreements with the Arabs…”
The term is extremely vague in this context, also inaccurate and mildly racist.
This should be revised to refer to the specific nation (in this case Egypt.) The agreement the Likud made was with the Egyptians and the Egyptian government, not all Arabs.
Furthermore,
“…suspicion of neighboring Arab nations' intentions…”
is again unnecessary, overly vague and racist. All of Israel’s immediate neighbors are Arabic speaking countries. The only non-Arabic speaking neighbors anywhere close are Turkey and Iran - the Likud are also suspicious of them.
Adding “Arab” makes it less accurate and more racist. 2601:152:800:11A0:A93B:F2B6:51F3:EA0F ( talk) 16:03, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

It seems that someone has changed Likud's political position to "right-wing to far-right". I can find no sources that call Likud a far-right party, nor does this article have any sources saying as much. Either A. It should be listed as only right-wing or B. The proper sources should be added to justify this change Sutapurachina ( talk) 00:39, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
