Knesset Jeremy has covered Knesset polls from leading Israeli media and polling companies since 2010.
Knesset Jeremy covered the 18th Knesset’s legislative activity for the English speaking public. The first and only blog to cover the Knesset’s plenary sessions in English summarizing what went on every day in the Knesset (the Israeli parliament) from a neutral point of view. During the 19th Knesset the focus was on major pieces of legislation as opposed to daily updates, as well as occasional op-eds. For the 20th Knesset the site has focused on occasional insider updates and election analysis.
Jeremy’s Daily Knesset Blog is managed by Knesset Insider, Campaigner and Political Analyst Jeremy “Man” Saltan.
Jeremy Saltan is a Knesset Insider, campaigner and leading political analyst. Jeremy is a regular contributor on radio and television, a local municipality politician and is one of Israel’s top poll analysts.
Jeremy is a former political assistant who has worked on the Knesset, Government and Faction levels. He has run political campaigns in English and Hebrew for municipality, party institution, primary and general elections.
Jeremy’s in-depth opinion pieces have been published, quoted, or credited in numerous publications, including the Jerusalem Post, Times of Israel, Israel National News, Jewish Press, IBA News, Voice of America, ABC, Daily Beast, France 24, Washington Post, BBC, Al Jazeera, Huffington Post, CCTV, Daystar, Five Thirty Eight and Foreign Policy.

Hi, will visit your blog, regards, Ricki
An acquaintance mentioned your blog to me today. When I saw the name, I thought it was you. As a stand-up-ist, the knesset is a good fit, nu?
I found the transition from comedy to politics to be as easy as can be.
Shalom Jeremy,
I am coming to Israel
I will be in Israel April 13th until April 25th.
I expect some time with you. I will be coming with my wife –
I have no arrangements for hotel or caravan. Is there a free caravan available or a room for myself and my wife to stay in for the time in Israel.
I will pay accordingly. Maybe alternatively the yeshiva or someone who wants to rent out their apartment or house. if I have to. I can rent out a place in someones house which would limit the expenses.
Please let me know asap as I have to book accordingly.
Can’t wait to see ya.

All of those links are dead. I suggest contacting me through email. I would be happy to comment on the reporting once you give me live links. I cover every bill that hits the Knesset floor and I have never heard of any of those bills. I will be able to research them better if I have more information.
Jeremy,
This is one of the weblinks that Colleen Nelson was referring to. http://www.imemc.org/article/61573
Haven’t seen anything other than a bunch of ‘echo chamber’ sites, repeating the exact same ‘story’ on the bill.
The closest thing I’ve found is a news story about the Nakba bill deliberations, in which the story refers to discussion about illegal housing demolition. (http://www.jpost.com/DiplomacyAndPolitics/Article.aspx?id=213396)
Cheers
AJ
Thanks Adam.
The first link that you posted is an Amendment to the Planning and Construction Bill by from MK Kirshenbaum. The law only applies to Israelis, not Palestinians. The International Middle East Media Center should collect all the facts before publishing inaccurate reports. https://knessetjeremy.com/2010/10/21/winter-session-day-6-three-bills-advanced-on-rabin-memorial-day/
The “Nakba Bill” and other such controversial bills are targeted at Israeli Arabs and not at Palestinians. I don’t know where you are getting your information Colleen, as I mentioned above I’d be happy to comment on anything you want to send to my email.
Remember that KnessetJeremy is the only site that covers all the bills that hit the Knesset floor and offers the reader what every speaker had to say about each bill. Other websites, blogs and newspapers slant their stories to include the bills they want to talk about and only cover the speakers they choose are worthy of comment. In most cases this leads to unprofessional and inaccurate reporting.
I don’t think the Israeli press has a regular feature on the doings in the Knesset, and when they do, they rather cover “hot” topics, but do not report on the regular work of the MKs. Your blog nicely fills this lack.
I specially appreciate you are also a stand-up comedian and comedy club owner. it fits quite well with dealing with the circus called the Knesset!
I don’t think the Israesli press has any regular column reporting on the doings of the public’s representatives in the Knesset, except when “hot” topics come up. Your blog seems to fill this lack.
I specially appreciate you are also a stand-up comedian and comedy club owner. it fits quite well with your dealings with the circus called the Knesset!
I have heard you on the radio. You really know your stuff!
Great blog, haven’t seen anything else like it.
Yes like the other posters here I was looking up some information on the Knesset Budget date and “chanced” upon your site.
Thank you !
Great leather jacket photo, Jeremy, very “Rebel Without a Cause”.
keep up the excellent information gathering and presentation, it is really providing a good service.
Jeremy,
Great Blog – we source at The Progressive Zionist blog AND as Team Shalom on Daily Kos. I gotta say, you do a great job summing up what is happening.
Thank you so much,
I appreciate the support. Thanks!
It’s amazing that Israel has stood up to this for 30 years. It’s a tiny urnctoy, but it has beaten all the Arab nations around it.If the Israelis guaranteed that the peaceful Palestinians would be naturalized, then I agree that Israel should push to the Jordan. There are a fair amount of Palestinian Christians in that area (though none of them are terrorists). But if Israel could push all the Muslims and Hamas-supporters into Jordan, then the problem would be solved.The way Palestine works now is ineffecient at best. Palestine is an infant urnctoy with a small land area that is divided into two segments seperated by miles of Israeli land, filled to the brim with people, among whom are some of the worst terrorists in the world. The UN is just way out there on the idea that a situation like that is going to turn out well.
I am fond of Israel and I support its right to exist and defend itself, but I strongly disagree on how it is replicating its past pain and torment to the Palestinians nowadays.
What makes you think that pushing Muslims to Jordan will stop the problem? Then, why do you think that Muslims ARE the problem? Have you ever thought on why Israel has (unfortunately) so many enemies?
It is something to think about.

You have made some decent points there. I checked on the internet to learn more about the issue and found
most people will go along with your views on this web site.
Wonderful website. Plenty of useful information here. I’m sending it to some buddies ans also sharing in delicious. And naturally, thank you on your sweat!

You have done a extraordinary job!
Great work! This is the kind of info that are meant to be
shared across the internet. Shame on Google for now not positioning this post
upper! Come on over and talk over with my site . Thanks =)
Could a new Kachalon Party try to form a more centrist coalition with Yesh Atid, Labour, Meretz and any Kadima MKs? Are there any other parties that could fit into this group? How big could it get? From a political point of view, do you think Israel would be better off if the extremes on both sides were out of power, and a centrist coalition governed?
Kachaon was a top 5 Likud MK & minister from 2003-2013. It is hard to believe he starts new party & doesn’t support BB for PM if he is largest party. If Likud isn’t largest party it is possible he goes with someone else, but likely not as far left as Labor. Kachalon has very little to do with Meretz, as he was one of the rebel Likud MKs who fought PM Sharon over disengagement from Gaza.
With this poll it is impossible to see a government that isn’t right-wing.
As for the political point of view, it is a matter of perspective if Israel would be better with a centralist government over a left or right government.
Useful information. Fortunate me I found your web site unintentionally, and I’m
surprised why this coincidence didn’t happened in advance!
I bookmarked it.
It’s actually a nice and useful piece of info. I’m satisfied that you
simply shared this helpful info with us. Please stay us up to date like this.
Thank you for sharing.
A big thank you for the blog article.Much thanks again. Great.
I’m amazed, I must say. Rarely do I encounter a blog
that’s equally educative and entertaining, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head.
The issue is something which too few men and
women are speaking intelligently about. I’m very happy that I found this during my hunt for something relating to this.
Hey! This is my first visit to your blog! We are a group of volunteers and starting a
new initiative in a community in the same niche. Your
blog provided us beneficial information to work on. You have
done a marvellous job!
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my
own blog and was curious what all is required to get
set up? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
I’m not very web savvy so I’m not 100% sure. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
It’s amazing to go to see this website and reading the views
of all colleagues about this article, while I am
also eager of getting experience.
