Reality Check: Feiglin may be controversial, but he doesn’t jump on any bandwagon

• http://www.jpost.com, By JEFF BARAK
 Don’t get me wrong: far-right Likud MK Moshe Feiglin is one of the most dangerous men in Israeli politics. Even Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu recognizes this – to the extent that he has resorted in the past to banning his parliamentary colleague from visiting the Temple Mount, declaring such a visit a real threat to national security.

Feiglin is also a threat to Netanyahu politically. President of the Jewish Leadership faction within the Likud, a group which gains its support primarily from settlement activists and which originated from the violently anti-Oslo Zo Artzeinu protest movement, Feiglin has repeatedly challenged Netanyahu’s leadership of the Likud.
