Trauma does not check your passport.

Israel is carrying a generation of untreated trauma — soldiers, civilians, and the people of Gaza. We are the party that says the medicine already exists, it grows out of the ground, and withholding it is a human rights failure.

Takes 20 seconds. Mobile number only.

Aleh Yarok was founded in 1999 by Boaz Wachtel, one of the world's early ibogaine researchers. Our platform predates the current debate by twenty-five years.

What we are running on

01

Healing, immediately

Legal, supervised access to cannabis and psychedelic-assisted therapy for IDF soldiers, for the estimated hundreds of thousands of Israeli civilians living with PTSD, and for Gazans carrying war trauma.

02

Cities of refuge, not more war

Ecological field hospitals — an Ir Miklat, a city of refuge — standing up now for both IDF soldiers and Gazans. Animals, music, healers, year-round trauma camps.

03

Get people off opioids

Ibogaine-assisted detox for opioid dependency, including patients who became dependent after surgery for war injuries. This is the research our founder has spent his life on.

Why now

1999
Year Aleh Yarok was founded — we have been on this ballot for a quarter century
0
Knesset seats so far. The threshold is the only thing between this platform and law
2
Seats we are contesting with candidates who have been to prison for helping patients

The threshold is a counting problem.

Aleh Yarok has never lacked support — it has lacked a count. Every election, people tell us they voted Green Leaf and we have no way to know how many of them there were before election day. So we are counting in public. Tell us we have your vote. Mobile number only — we do not ask for your Teudat Zehut.

Not an Israeli citizen?

Then you cannot legally donate to an Israeli political party, and we will not take your money. What you can do is sponsor a caravan — a physical shelter — for an IDF soldier or a Gazan family. You choose who you sponsor. That is humanitarian aid, handled by a separate registered aid organization, and it is completely separate from the party's finances.

The Phree Gaza Music Festival

One stage, both peoples, no political position except this one: plant medicine is a human right. Artists we are inviting, healers we are calling in, and a field hospital that stays after the music stops.
