ALLIANCE FOR EQUALITY
: A political movement created in April 1992 at a meeting of some 300 Jews and Palestinian Arabs assembled in Haifa, the Alliance for Equality later became part of the National Democratic Assembly (also known as the Democratic National Alliance [DNA]), a political party founded in 1996, representing primarily Palestinian Israelis. One of its founders, Azmi Bishara, a scholar at the Van Leer Institute in Jerusalem, was elected a member of the Knesset on the DNA ticket in 1996.
