History

Bnei Brit HaHadasha, soon changed to Bnei Brit, was established in 2013 with the aim of representing the interests of Arab Christians in Israel. The party encourages full integration of Arab Christians into Israeli society, the two-state solution, and enlistment of Arab speaking Christians into the Israel Defense Forces. It was founded by Bishara Shilyan, a sea captain from Nazareth, and one of the founders of the Christian Enlistment Forum and a central promoter of recruitment of Christians into the Israeli Defense Forces. Israel's Arab Christians are predominantly Melkite Greek and Roman Catholic and represent a minority within the broader Arab population of the country.
The party's founder, Bishara Shilyan, said he wants to build a tall statue of Jesus. The party aims to promote equality between majority and minorities in Israel, in the spirit of the Israeli Declaration of Independence. In its TV broadcast, Shilyan promised to make Israel into a maritime powerhouse in a joined Christian–Jewish effort.
The party participated in the September 2019 Israeli legislative election under the new name Christian Liberal Movement, with the same leader.
