Gidi Markuszower is an Israeli-Dutch MP. Markuszower got publicly mentioned in 2010 by the AIVD for "sharing information and being under the influence of a foreign intelligence entity", which was hinted by sources to be the Mossad. Ernst Hirsch Ballin called him "a serious threat for the integrity of the Netherlands." He was dropped from the PVV party-list for the 2010 elections and was instead elected MP for Geert Wilders his senate fraction in 2015. [1]

Background

Markuszower has multiple law degrees and is the main spokesperson for the PVV for security and justice reform. Markuszower was a member, consultant and security guard for the Dutch-division of Israeli political party Likud.

Activities

From 2015 to 2017 Markuszower was chairman of the parliamentary permanent commission for immigration and asylum in the Dutch senate.

Markuszower also was the treasurer of the Dutch Israelite Religious Community from 2014 to 2018 and member of the Central Jewish Consults from 2014 to 2015.[2] In that role Markuszower was suspended after an internal power struggle with the head rabbi who gave an election tip to Jewish-Dutch nationals to "not vote for Geert Wilders and Front National because Adolf Hitler also was elected democratically". Following closing statements calling the rabbi "intellectually lazy" for keeping to use World War 2 as main argument for every political decision, Markuszower resigned after losing an preliminary injunction.[3]


Israel

Markuszower advocates "the removal from society of every Jew that publicly questions Israel's handling of Gaza."[4]


Denial

NOS interviewed Markuszower for Nieuwsuur in which he announced no more further statements on the case after calling it an "evil letter of the AIVD"[5]. Markuszower also did not explain the need or why he was arrested on the suspicion of unlawfully carrying a weapon as "security guard" for Jewish institutions.[6]

Spook

Neither Geert Wilders, neither the AIVD or Markuszower has actually explained why he was accepted as MP years later instead.
