# Netanyahu is sworn in heading a coalition that includes Otzma Yehudit and Religious Zionism

Date: 2022

## The fact

On 29 December 2022 [Benjamin Netanyahu](/people/benjamin-netanyahu) was sworn in as prime minister of the 37th government, a coalition including Likud, Shas, UTJ, Religious Zionism, Otzma Yehudit, and Noam.

## Context

It was widely described as Israel’s most right-wing government. Neighbouring judicial overhaul began days later. He did not write every partner manifesto.

Judicial overhaul 4 January 2023 is a child instrument. [Smotrich](/people/bezalel-smotrich)’s Civil Administration powers are neighbouring.

The Prime Minister of Israel chairs the cabinet, is the political principal of the IDF, and can table Knesset bills. He does not write a Hamas military order, an ICC judgment, a US presidential proclamation, or a UN Security Council resolution.

## Evidence and sources

Prime Minister's Office of Israel carries the official instrument or communique. Reuters records the same dated act independently.

## Significance

The path is political polarisation and minority rights: seating Otzma Yehudit and Religious Zionism in cabinet is a completed coalition instrument.

## What is established and what is not

Established: 29 December 2022 swearing-in of the 37th government including those parties, independently reported.

Not established: that every later settler attack was this oath, or a unique later Arab-citizen coefficient from the ceremony.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, a later repeal, a court that vacated the instrument, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

Partner leaders took specific ministries. The Knesset invested the government.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Netanyahu is sworn in heading a coalition that includes Otzma Yehudit and Religious Zionism, not a later speech about Netanyahu is sworn in heading a coalition that includes Otzma Yehudit and Religious Zionism.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. Netanyahu is sworn in heading a coalition that includes Otzma Yehudit and Religious Zionism on 2022-12-29 is not a licence to treat every later Prime Minister's Office of Israel communique as this same act. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. This dossier refuses to average Netanyahu is sworn in heading a coalition that includes Otzma Yehudit and Religious Zionism into a personality. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to He formed and headed the coalition. Partner leaders took specific ministries. The Knesset invested the government. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
