Michael Nudelman (

between 1996 and 2009.

Political career

Born in

Kiev in the Soviet Union (today Ukraine), Nudelman made aliyah
to Israel in 1991.

He was elected to the

15th Knesset and to the 16th Knesset (as part of the National Union list, which Yisrael Beiteinu
joined in that election).

In the 14th Knesset he served as chairman of the Science and Technology Committee, and he served as Deputy Chairman of the 16th Knesset.

In 2005 Nudelman supported the

disengagement plan. Towards the end of the 16th Knesset he resigned from the party and announced that he was joining Kadima, seeing out the rest of the Knesset term as an independent MK. He was returned to the Knesset on Kadima's list in the 2006 elections
.

Prior to the 2009 elections he left Kadima and reformed Aliyah, renaming it Yisrael HaMithadeshet. However, the party failed to cross the electoral threshold, and he lost his seat.
