Kakh has a picture of a closed fist next to it that is a right-wing, racist and extremist (in terms of religious and ethnic) party and it has obvious fascist tendencies that was formed in 1973 by rabbi Meir Kahana, who emigrated to Israel in 1971; he is president of "Jewish defense League", which was formed in 1968 in the United States.
Kakh's attitude, or to be more precisely, their leader, Kahana is a combination of religious thoughts, extreme hatred toward Arabs and fascist thoughts from the right-wing racist American movements. Kakh Party was the first political party in Israel's history that has clearly raised slogan of expelling Palestinians (including the Palestinians of 1948 who have Israeli citizenship, or those who were living in the occupied territories during the 1967 war) from around the so-called land of Israel.
Kakh Party after forming first attacked the Philistines in 1948, and by trying to embitter the lives of Jews and hostile sentiments against them, tried to provide backgrounds of evicting them from Israel. Kakh's propaganda attacks against the Palestinian people were very vulgar and obscene. The attacks culminated in the first half of the eighties. At the time Kahana, leader of the Kakh, began to manage demonstrations in the Arab towns and villages in order to stimulate their inhabitants' emotions and also to attract the attention of Jewish voters to him and his party. These demonstrations have always led to clashes with Arabs and that is why Israeli officials banned Kahana from entering Arab towns and villages due to feeling fear of continuation of these demonstrations.
In the second half of the eighties, Kakh reduced its activities in the occupied territories in 1948 and set the West Bank as the main focus of the activities. Most of the supporters and fans of Kakh are in the West Bank and headquarters of the party is in Jewish settlement of Kiryat Arba near Al-khalil. Two armed organizations' clandestine operations included attacks on individuals, destruction of property, destroying the trees and destruction of farms and the assassination of a number of Arabs. The two organizations are "Committee providing roads" and "government of Judah" that the first one was made in 1986 and second one was made in 1989. Of course, the first organization is more dangerous and the number of its members is estimated to be several hundred and most of them are based in Kiryat Arba town. The residents are equipped with fast vehicles and advanced communication equipment and they have several caches of weapons and explosives at their disposal. Two other secret organizations were called the T.n.t (or terrorism against terrorism) and Sikarkym (or dagger holders), and the operations of the two organizations were also attributed to the palace. The first organization was against the Arabs and the second one was against some Jewish people who defended peace with the Arabs, which had been involved for a short time.
Kahana was candidate in parliamentary elections in 1973, 1977 and 1981, but he was not a member of the Knesset. But with the changing political situation and the value principles in Israel after Likud coming to power in 1977, and at the same time with strengthening the position of Jewish right-wings and increasing feelings of hostility against Arabs, Party's public base was developed, and as a result, when Kahana was a candidate for membership in the Knesset in elections of 1984, was able to gain the votes of 26 thousand eligible to become a member of the Knesset. His membership, according to his racist opinions and fascist acts, was a political scandal for Israel and that is why the Knesset by legislation of a law prevented participation of parties, which advocated racial discrimination and hostile feelings of some people against others in the elections. According to the law Israel's Supreme Court prevented participation of the Party of Kakh in the 1988 elections.
In November 1990, Kakh lost its leader. At the time, Kahana wanted to raise funds for his party in the United States, and one of American citizens (Egyptian) killed him in New York City. By Kahana's death, Kakh palace lost the main source of its power because Kahana was theorist, the caller, collector of the donations, the main decision maker and major stimulus to the activities of the party. Shortly after the murder of Kahana, Kakh was divided into two factions. The first one was "Kakh> and the second one was known as . Neither of them can be called as a party but they are in fact the secret terrorist organizations. Base of the "Kakh" front is remained in Kiryat Arba settlement, while "Live Kahana" established its headquarters in the city of Nablus in the Jewish settlement of Kofar Tabvah. The Kakh front is more alive and more dangerous than Live Kahana and the number of its registered members is several hundred people and the fans are more than a few thousand people. Supreme Leader of the wing is formed from Baruch Mrzyl as president, Nuam Federman as spokesman and Tiran Bullock as head of
