However, it was barred from participating in the next elections in 1988 under the revised Knesset Elections Law banning parties that incited racism.

NILI () was a Jewish espionage network which assisted the United Kingdom in its fight against the Ottoman Empire in the Mutasarrifate of Jerusalem between 1915 and 1917, during World War I.
