Gush Emunim

Gush Emunim גוש אמונים (Hebrew: "Block faithful") was an Israeli political movement. The movement sprang out of the conquests of the Six-Day War in 1967, though it was not formally established as an organization until 1974, in the wake of the Yom Kippur War. It encouraged Jewish settlement of land they believe God has alloted for Jews.
