This was intended to unify their political sector and present the public with a new face for the religious Zionist movement. The Jewish Home was to be a single party, rather than a list of separate parties, each with its own agenda and independent leadership. Professor <a href="/wiki/Daniel_Hershkowitz" title="Daniel Hershkowitz">Daniel Hershkowitz</a> was picked to head the newly formed party. However, MK <a href="/wiki/Aryeh_Eldad" title="Aryeh Eldad">Aryeh Eldad</a> left to form his own list, Hatikva, while MKs <a href="/wiki/Effi_Eitam" title="Effi Eitam">Effi Eitam</a> and <a href="/wiki/Yitzhak_Levy" title="Yitzhak Levy">Yitzhak Levy</a> (formerly of Ahi) re-established Ahi, which later merged into <a href="/wiki/Likud" title="Likud">Likud</a>. When the Jewish Home announced its candidate list for the elections, five of the top six slots went to ex-NRP members, with only MK <a href="/wiki/Uri_Ariel" title="Uri Ariel">Uri Ariel</a>, formerly of Tkuma, in the top six. </p><p>The remaining ex-Moledet members broke off, re-established their party, and allied with MK Eldad's Hatikva, reviving the National Union name. Elon stated that he would not seek re-election, and American immigrant <a href="/w/index.php?title=Uri_Bank&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Uri Bank (page does not exist)">Uri Bank</a> took his place on the Jewish Home list. The split from Jewish Home grew, and polls indicated Hatikva could win three seats. <a href="/wiki/Eretz_Yisrael_Shelanu" title="Eretz Yisrael Shelanu">Eretz Yisrael Shelanu</a> also joined the National Union, with member <a href="/wiki/Michael_Ben-Ari" title="Michael Ben-Ari">Michael Ben-Ari</a> given fourth spot on the alliance's list. While these issues were being negotiated, Uri Ariel also left Jewish Home and rejoined the National Union list, leaving Jewish Home as little more than a renamed NRP. </p><p>In preparation for the <a href="/wiki/2013_Israeli_legislative_election" title="2013 Israeli legislative election">2013 Knesset elections</a>, the Tkuma faction of the National Union merged with the Jewish Home. Ya'akov Katz, chairman of the party, asked to be lower on the list of Tkuma members, and soon after resigned from politics. Hatikva and Eretz Yisrael Shelanu broke off, and merged to form <a href="/wiki/Otzma_LeYisrael" class="mw-redirect" title="Otzma LeYisrael">Otzma LeYisrael</a><sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> while Moledet and Tkuma merged with the Jewish Home.<sup id="cite_ref-2013Elections_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2013Elections-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In the elections held on 22 January 2013, the Jewish Home received 9% of the vote, winning twelve seats in the Knesset. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Controversy">Controversy</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=National_Union_(Israel)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Controversy"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>National Union had come under scrutiny for its sympathy towards right-wing "<a href="/wiki/Price_tag_policy" class="mw-redirect" title="Price tag policy">price-tag</a>" militants, who engaged in <a href="/wiki/Vandalism" title="Vandalism">vandalist</a> activities targeting both the state of Israel and <a href="/wiki/Palestinians" title="Palestinians">Palestinians</a>, including siding with such militants in clashes with Israeli authorities.
