biography

Goldfarb emigrated in 1963 from Romania to Israel one . After his military service, he founded his own company for building and electrical engineering and was on the board of the Association of Israeli Electrical Engineers. He studied human resource management and political science at Bar-Ilan University ( BA ) and obtained a degree in business administration from Michlala LeMinhal near Tel Aviv . Goldfarb was a member of the Tzomet party , a right-wing, secular, small party, for which he was in the 13th Knesset from July 13, 1992 to June 17, 1996. After disputes with the chairman Rafael Eitan , he left the group with two other Tzomet members of parliament, Gonen Segev and Esther Salmovitz, and together with them on February 7, 1994, a parliamentary group called Ji'ud was founded . The Ji'ud supported the policies of the government under Prime Minister Yitzchak Rabin and Goldfarb was appointed Deputy Minister for Construction and Housing on January 2, 1995 , a position that he also held in the successor government under Shimon Peres until the end of the legislative period on January 18 , 1995 June 1996 maintained. After disputes with the leader of the Ji'ud faction, Gonen Segev, Goldfarb and Salmovitz founded another splinter group, the Atid, on November 27, 1995 .

He gained greater prominence through his voting behavior in the dispute over the ratification of the Oslo II Agreement in the Knesset on October 5, 1995, in which his vote enabled the agreement to be adopted with a majority of votes, although the content of the agreement was previously political Conflicted beliefs. Ezer Weizmann later said: “The agreement is not an agreement. It passed the Knesset by a majority of one and this would not have succeeded if not for one MK and his Mitsubishi " (German:" The agreement is not an agreement. It was passed by the Knesset with a majority of one vote and would not have been successful if there hadn't been a ministerial post and a Mitsubishi for them. "), an allusion to the fact that Goldfarb voted less for national reasons with the government coalition than to keep his deputy ministerial post and the company car he was entitled to - a Mitsubishi . The phrase "Mitsubishi agreements" , which is still used in Israeli politics, goes back to this incident.

On the occasion of the next elections to the Knesset, Goldfarb joined the Avoda , but was unable to assert himself for a place on the list in the primary elections and withdrew from politics. Until 2003 he worked for the Ministry of Defense and in 2004 he started his own company in the field of security consulting.

A candidacy for the chairmanship of the regional council of Be'er Tuvia lost Goldfarb in 2009 against the incumbent.
