Who they are
Limor Son Har-Melech came to public life through the campaign to return to Homesh, the northern Samaria settlement where her first husband was shot dead. She was born in Jerusalem in 1979 to Nissim Almaliach, a metalworker, and Shoshana née Eini; the family was not religious, and she moved to a religious school in the fourth grade and on to the Tzviya ulpana. After national service as a Bnei Akiva branch commissioner in Hashmonaim she studied at Midreshet Binat alongside educational counselling at Orot Israel College, and works in emotional therapy and parent guidance.
She married Shalom Har Melech in 2001 and the couple moved to Homesh, where they founded a yeshiva. Palestinian gunmen opened fire on them two years later: he was killed, and she was severely wounded and gave birth in an emergency delivery. When Homesh was cleared under the disengagement she helped found Homesh Tehila, the movement pressing for a return to the site.
She entered the Knesset for Otzma Yehudit in 2022 as the only woman among its members. She initiated the repeal of the disengagement law over northern Samaria and a run of criminal-law amendments on sexual offences, among them redefining rape to cover penetration of a man’s body. The Knesset passed her death penalty for terrorists bill in March 2026.
