Gideon "Gidi" Markuszower (born 27 October 1977) is an Israeli–Dutch politician of the Party for Freedom (PVV). He became a member of the Netherlands Senate on 9 June 2015.[1] During the 2017 Dutch general election he was elected to the House of Representatives, and gave up his Senate seat.
Research by the Dutch security service AIVD in 2010 suggested that he was influenced by a foreign security service, likely the Mossad.[2] When this was communicated to party leader Geert Wilders, he withdrew himself as a candidate for the Tweede Kamer.[3]
