They were protesting against the proposal to withdraw from the Golan Heights , which had been occupied since the Six Day War , in order to achieve peace with Syria in return . In the 1996 elections it received 96,457 votes, giving it four seats. She participated in the ruling coalition, with Kahalani becoming Minister of Homeland Security.
