One Map of Judea illustration. Moshe Shamir was active in Mapam. After the Six-Day War, similarly to the songwriter Naomi Shemer, he changed his political leaning. He became one of the creators of the Movement for Greater Israel (Eretz Israel HaShlema, literally "Whole Land of Israel"), a part of the La'am faction in the Likud. He was elected to the Knesset in the legislative elections of 1977. He was among the founders of the "Bnai" faction (acronym for a phrase meaning "Union of Eretz Israel Faithful") that opposed the Camp David Accords (1978). In late 1979, after the Israel-Egypt peace treaty, he broke away from Likud, along with Knesset member Geula Cohen, and found the Tehiya Bnai party. He supported the settling of the West Bank after its capture. The King of Flesh and Blood, his most translated book was awarded the Bialik Prize for literature. The English version here was translated by Oxford University lecturer in Post Biblical Hebrew, David Patterson.
