Israel's selective approach to addressing #antisemitism, combined with establishing ties to parties with neo-Nazi and antisemitic histories, suggests potential political motivations behind these relationships. These alliances may be partly related to finding international support against institutions like the #ICC, that have taken positions critical of Israel's actions.

David Issacharoff writes in Haaretz that this strategic pivot comes amid #Netanyahu's growing tensions with international institutions like the #ICC, with far-right partners offering political support against "global dictatorships" of international courts.

- Likud joined the far-right Patriots alliance, which includes Austria's Freedom Party (founded by an SS general)

- Israel's Foreign Minister announced formal relations with Sweden Democrats, Le Pen's National Rally, and Spain's Vox
but Israel's stance remains ambiguous on parties with explicit neo-Nazi ties.

Israel's stance toward Germany's Alternative for Germany (AfD) remains officially ambiguous, though Chikli has signaled interest in establishing relations with the far-right party. While Israeli diplomats maintain a formal boycott, Chikli has described AfD co-leader Alice Weidel as representing "a healthy liberal patriotism" and expressed hope the party will "purge itself of bullies who see no problem with serving in the SS," suggesting that behind-the-scenes engagement may be underway despite the party being too controversial for official recognition.

[...] The AfD is deeply rooted in neo-Nazi culture, and Germany's Jewish community describes it having a "blatantly antisemitic ideology." The Freedom Party, in whose ranks antisemitic and neo-Nazi incidents occur with great regularity, has been described as "antisemitic to its core."
