  1. What Balestinian land? During all centuries Jews, Muslims and Christians lived in that land. What advantage has the so called Balestine?

  2. At the first years of any Kibbutz they needed workers. If every woman had to watch her small child there were not enough working hands. That's why they decided of the Kindergarten at day time and separate sleeping from their parents. In that way only two women were required for 20 children instead 20 to be watched at home by not working mothers. After a hard day in the fields their parents needed a good night sleep. Anyway, that is not the situation anymore for some decades. Instead of man/woman power there are machines which is doing the hard work.

  3. Ha, Israel is a country in the eastern side of the Mediterranean sea. You can see it hardly on the map because it is very tiny . Established in 1948 and had to fight for its independence against five Arab countries and locals. After that there were also some wars with its neighbors. At the beginning it was a desert but now it is Paradise. A very developed country with sophisticated High Teck and Agriculture and Medicine with 10 Nobel awards. But you can read it by yourself it everywhere.

  4. If you want to boycott Israeli products you can do it easily. For the beginning you can give up your Computer, your smartphone, your Disk-on-key. Shall I go on with the list? It's a large one.

  5. Why not their land? During all centuries Jews, Muslims and Christians lived in that land. What advantage has the so called Balestinians?

  6.  @DonMrLenny  Cost of living in the West Bank is much cheaper than in Israel. A palestinian there earns about 200 shekel a day and the Israeli one earns about 400 shekel.

  7.  @kerryhorwitz4093  What's new??

  8. It would have happened anyway. At the declaration of independence there were only 600,000 Jews in Israel. After that many Jews started to arrive in Israel from Europe and from the Levant. In three years the population doubled itself.

  9.  @robertglickman4555  You are right. It was to Palestine. But now its called Israel. Once it was called the Ottoman Empire and after WW1 that land was under the rule of the British Empire and was called Palestina-EI. EI - For Erets Israel. You can see the name on Stamps and Bills of that time. Can you tell us what was the name of Trans Jordan before it was given to the Hashemites also by the British after ww1? Just as Israel was given it by the same British? They even have no historical connection to it. They had been expelled out of Saudi Arabia and the British let them stay there as a token of gratitude for their help during ww1.

  10. Kibbutz Lavi.

  11. No, he was not. About 20 years before Herzl Jews from East Europe arrived in Israel. They bought lands from the Arab owners and start developing Agriculture in some points in Israel. In 1881 seven Jewish settlers from Jerusalem bought the lands of the town which I live now.

  12.  @nakkadu  Few hundreds, maybe less.

  13. The Kibbutz is full of them.

  14. Hanukkah was 100 years before Roman times.

  15.  @AntisemitismForDummies  According to the book of the Maccabeem, the Greeks were not so open minded. This is the reason for the Jews to celebrate Hanukkah. Freedom of the Jewish religion.

  16. The all length of Israel is 300 Miles. The most width of it is 40 Miles. Lot to see there.

  17.  daniel albo  A small correction: since 1700 to 1870 many Aliyahs took place. It's true that most of them were Sepharadic Jews who arrived from Italy, Turkey, Morocco and more, but there were also from Poland and Russia. These Jews didn't arrive to be farmers. They arrived in order to be scholars and to die and be burried in the Holyland.

  18. You are talking nonsense and you also show your ignorance in public not knowing the facts. You should be ashamed.

  20. You are mixing Datiim with Haredim.

  21. It's called the fifth emigration in the mid 30's. The first wave started after 1882 because of the riots against the Jews in Russia.

  22. Yes, it was called Beirobigjan (?) and it still exists. Few Jews still live there. There was another plan. To settle the Jews in Uganda for a while waiting for better times.

  23. That's right. Only 60% of the residents own an apartment. Average price is about 500,000 USD and in Tel AVIV about 800,000 USD.

  24. To all the ones who doubt his saying, I would like to suggest you to read the history of that region for the last 200 years starting 1831. After reading it you'll come to the understanding where and when most of the now so-called Palestinians arrive in that region and why. How the Jews started to arrive in that region alongside with the Arabs, how the British caused the Arab Israeli conflict and many more facts that you do not know. Just read.

  25. I do not understand why Israel didn't recognized till now the MASSACRE of 1,500,000 Armenians as a genocide.

  26.  @banto1  That's not true. Since mid 19th Century Jews all over the Arab countries suffered riots against them. Only one example: in June 1941 hundreds of Bagdad Jews were killed and and more than 2,000 were wounded and their property was looted by their neighbors. It was called Farhud. This is only one of many.

  30.  @skontheroad2666  I was in the hotel there about three times in the last 20 years. Why hardly a typical Kibbutz?

  31.  @skontheroad2666  The prices during the Chagim all over Israel are very high since there is a high demand for it. I lived in a Kibbutz for a while so I know what is a Kibbutz. Regarding the food in Lavi, I remember that I and others had good food. You didn't answered my question, what is a Typical Kibbutz.

  34. That what Yasser Arafat said in the U.N. holding this coin. He claimed that this is the real Map of the Middle East that Israel is thinkig of. The truth is that it is a piece of a coin which was used in Judea about 40 years B.C and which was found in Jerusalem. Now it is in the Israel Museum.

  35.  @jimksa67  Arafat would not stop the terror until he returned to the Arabs the territory from the Jordan River to a sea clean of Jews. He was offered back 97% of the West Bank and 3% of Israeli Territory and he agreed to it. Therefor he got the Nobel Prize for peace. After a while he became cold feet and took back his agreement. Why? Read again the first part of this comment.

  36. Jews are going there everyday with no fear at all.

  37. Is that all what you were watching?

  40. It's a Philosophical issue. There were about 3,500,000 Jews in Poland at the beginning of WW2. According to a certain calculation that says the every seven years the numbers of them are doubled, the figures would have shown several hundreds Million by now. If you recall, God said that he chose Israel not because they were the out large numbers but they were the minority. Since then God makes sure they remain a minority. You can see i all over the Jewish history. Pogroms by Crusaders, by Church, Inquisition, Khmelnitsky riots in Ukraine in the 17h Century, Riots in Russia at the end of the 19th Century and at the beginning of the 20th Century, and the Holocaust. At 1939 there were 16 Millions Jews all over the world. It was the largest number of Jews who lived ever at a time.

  44.  @mohssenkh6422  What about Gondi??

  45.  @mohssenkh6422  I know what Kofte means. The Persian family of my son-in-law say that Gondi (made of Humus and Chicken meat and serves with soup and it looks like a kofte) is a traditional Persian delicates. Maybe only a Jewish traditional portion.

  50.  perakole The Balestinan nation was invented in 1936 by Hag Amin el Husseini. Before that no body called the people there that name. They were the majority but there were also many Christians and Jews who lived mostly in the four holy towns and in mixed villages in the upper Galilee.
