Noach P. Feldman (born March 25th, 1959), more commonly known by his Anglicized name Noah Feldman, is a Yisraeli politician who is the current President of Yisrael. He has served in a number of elected positions in the Western District's legislature and executive offices. He is a member of the Royalist Conservative Party.
He served as special forces officer in the Royal Yisraeli Defense Forces, before pursuing a business career in media consulting and public relations. Several years after leaving the armed forces, he moved to his childhood hometown and ran for office in the District Legislature, serving two 2-year terms in its lower house, the Assembly, and two 4-year terms as a district senator. He eventually arose to Governor of the Western District, serving a term and a half before winning the 2012 presidential election, ousting incumbent Con-Lib Eitan Herzog.
As President, Feldman has espousing an ideology coined as "neoconservatism," increasing tying political and religious conservatism together domestically and asserting Yisrael more assertively abroad, such as in the 2019-20 protests in Gran Aligonia. He is also credited for preventing Christian terrorism from being successfully executed in a given year since it began, with 2019 being the first year to go without a terrorist attack since the 1970s. Feldman has also touted his economic policies for the 2010s economic boom.
