Wall-to-Wall Coalition

Wall-to-Wall Coalition
   During the crisis preceding the Six-Day War (1967), Israel created a "wall-to-wall" political coalition incorporating virtually all of Israel's political parties in a Government of National Unity. The Communists were pointedly excluded, but for the first time, Gahal and Menachem Begin joined Israel's coalition government. Begin and his political allies remained in the government until the summer of 1970, when they withdrew because of opposition to government policy concerning the terms associated with the cease-fire in the War of Attrition (1969-70) that had been arranged by the United States.
