Revital "Tally" Gotliv (born 3 November 1975[1]) is an Israeli lawyer and politician. She is currently a member of the Knesset for the Likud.[2]
In her legal career, Gotliv worked for the State Attorney in the Tel Aviv district and represented defendants in sex crime cases. She garnered attention for her criticism of a rape victim's testimony on social media, which led to a complaint filed against her by the Association of Rape Crisis Centers in Israel, although the complaint was later shelved. Gotliv's bid for the chairmanship of the Israel Bar Association in 2016 marked her as the first woman to run for the office, although she came in last place. She was also a panelist on Channel 13's Shishi until May 2022.
Gotliv's political career began with her co-founding the Shavim party, which focused on equality for parents and individuals with disabilities, but garnered only 401 votes in the 2019 election. Subsequently, she joined Likud and was elected to the Knesset. Known for provocative rhetorics, she has made controversial statements on social media. Gotliv has also been noted for spreading conspiracy theories, including false claims about a meeting between Mossad and a leader in the protest movement against the government's judicial overhaul, and accusing the Israel Defense Forces and Shin Bet of "aiding terrorists".
