Mr Amidror has expressed opposition to creating a Palestinian state, and last month wrote that peace talks, and even an agreement with the Palestinians, "would not benefit Israel in any way".
He has also suggested that the Gaza Strip should be reoccupied by the Israeli army "for many years".
Immediately after his appointment, a group of leading intellectuals sent a protest letter to the parliamentary foreign affairs and defence committee in which the signers called him a "fascist".
They also quoted a remark he made last year, when he said that "a soldier who refuses to attack should be shot between the eyes".
