About me
Hi, I’m Danny Danon.
I defend Israel’s legitimacy, speak plain truths, and turn conviction into statecraft.
For over 15 years — in the Knesset, in government ministries, and twice behind Israel’s nameplate at the United Nations — I have made the same case: a sovereign Israel, secure in its land and unapologetic in its diplomacy.
Through speeches, books, and direct engagement with world leaders and the media, I bring the argument for Israel out of closed chambers and into the open — plainly stated, firmly held, and built to persuade.
Journey
From Ramat Gan to the United Nations.
From Ramat Gan schoolyards to the Security Council horseshoe — my story, in my words.
1971–1988
Ramat Gan Roots
I grew up in Ramat Gan and walked the halls of Blich High School — where I first learned what it means to belong to something larger than yourself.
