Pinhas "Pini" Badash (Hebrew: פנחס "פיני" בדש; born 29 August 1952) is an Israeli politician who has served as mayor of Omer local council since 1990.

Born in moshav Gilat, Badash studied mechanical engineering at the Negev University, graduating in 1979.

A member of the Tzomet secretariat and chairman of its finance committee, Badash became head of Omer local council in 1990.

Chairman of the Israel-China Parliamentary Friendship League,[1] he was re-elected in 1996, but resigned his seat on 30 November 1998 after a new law was passed preventing Knesset members from simultaneously acting as mayors or council heads, and was replaced by Doron Shmueli.

Justifying the use of Admissions Committees in the Negev, Badash has described Bedouin Arabs as "Termites", adding "on a day of reckoning and at a time of crisis they are the enemy".
