Zionism and the kibbutz

My parents were members of HeChalutz (a Zionist group in the diaspora). In order to come to Palestine in 1935 using only one certificate, they got married. We returned to the U.S. in 1937, when I was one year old. All of my childhood I lovingly accepted the idea that I would return to Palestine. For me the resettlement of the Jewish people in Palestine and espcially on the kibbutz, was expressed in the slogan - "The Torah will again go forth from Zion". A couple of weeks before my aliya I met a group of socialists who presented me with a different challenge. They said that instead of going off to some small country in the Middle East that I should stay in the U.S. and work towards socialism there.

All the groups for peace Here is the invitation that sent to the 45 groups that I had in my list for peace (Facebook page): I invite your group to join a new group for Peace (also in the Middle East) - https://www.facebook.com/groups/Allthepeacegroups/.  I am sending a similar invitation to the other 2 groups that I have listed on my Peace in Israel page. You will find the URL of this page in this new group.  If you know of more groups that are not listed please send me the URL.

Let's see if this works or helps.

How can cooperation get started at all ?" 2. "Can cooperative strategies survive better than their noncooperative rivals?" 3. "Which cooperative strategies will do best , and how will they come to dominate ?" He reported on a computer tournament that Axelrod, from the University of Michigan, organized and that showed how it could be done. There were 3 contests. For the first 2 contests people were invited to present computer programs that would meet all the other programs 200 times. These programs would respond to the others with a "C" (cooperation) or "D" (defection) The points were noted as such: a, If both programs gave a C then they would both get 3 points. b. ...
