What Life Is Like On An Israeli Kibbutz | Zionism Revisited | Unpacked

Oct '23 Hamas-Israel War: • Hamas-Israel War Has C...
In 1909 when young Jews founded the first Kibbutz, they had no idea that they would be forming a symbol of Israel’s rebirth. These agricultural communities innovated the communal experience as an experiment in Democratic Socialism.
Jews from all over the world came to Israel in an attempt to find their identity and participate in advancing the country agriculturally, industrially and socially.
Over time, as individualism grew, kibbutzim have changed and adapted in order to thrive and yet, the kibbutz movement will forever be known for shaping Israel as it is today.
With all this and more, Netflix star Seni will take you on a journey through the proud tradition of socialist Zionism expressed in one of Israel's most successful social experiments.

I grew up like this on my dad's farm in Tennessee. It's like living Amish...very Spartan, very homely. We raised our own food in a family community. Everyone worked and we shared money and responsibility. My father was our bank and we all loved and respected each other. May God bless Israel and watch over humanity.

Interesting that all the people mentioned at the beginning are all wealthy celebrities and/or politicians. I’m not sure they still live by the socialist “share the wealth” ideals today. Bernie Sanders talks a good game, but he’s a wealthy man, living a privileged life. It seems any group starting out as socialist inevitably leads to a capitalist lifestyle. It’s human nature to want to keep what you earn, especially if you feel someone else is not putting in the same level of work.

If i were young again, I would definitely go back and work and live there longer! I very highly recommend it to anyone looking for adventure and a broader perspective of the world and the people of the world, as volunteers from many countries often congregate on kibbutzim. It was truly fantastic!

I volunteered on two kibbutzim when I was 18, and traveled to Egypt and it was an amazing experience.

Good video , , one of our tutors a long time back in 77 told us that the theoey of kibbutzim were to intoduce a communist ideal by the method of cells that would grow to their own limit wirhin a society whereas the Russian method was to have a huge social upheaval . Looks like it was the Chinese method too. Over the years I've mentioned on odd occasion that the israeli kibbutzim are examples of successful communism and it's the first time they've heard such a reference always. It was a teacher's college as they were then . I think the subject was social studies cum history. That endless debating and brainstorming is something which i know exactly what you're saying . Looks like there was plenty of debating and brainstorming for that raid on Entebbe too .

I (not a Jew) was a volunteer at Kibbutz Ginosar on the Sea of Galilee in the early 70s. I loved my time there. It was one of the best experiences in my life. Unfortunately, I knew very little about Jewish history. The main thing I knew about Israel, and it was the same for all my friends, was the Six Day War. I worked in the banana groves. Ginosar and the Sea of Galilee were 209 meters under sea level, which is why bananas grew so well there.

[@alancantu2557]

There is a reason why the USSR was, at least during its early existence and before the revisionist era, pro-Israel. Stalin himself made his support for Zionism and a Jewish homeland well-known. The Kibbutz lifestyle is one that champions progress, hard work, and hands-on learning. We should all be striving in one way or another to live like that.

Curious. Why can't you have a private Kibbutz? I.E. you buy in or you can charge a fee. Communal areas are rented. But, if you so choose, you can pay for the space of others. You can certainly be an individualist AND a capitalist and still wish to live in a tight knit community.

[@shevetlevi2821]

I've spent time on several kibbutzim and they really had such an idyllic feeling, very peaceful and bucolic. Sadly, although as mentioned in the video they've learned to adapt, they've become somewhat of a romantic anachronism. Also, at least in times past or at their height, although they've made up 2-3% of Israel's population, the members are highly respected in Israeli society and they've made up about 25% of the members of the elite military units, officer corps and Knesset members.

[@paulnejtek6588]

I'm not necessarily pro or anti Israel, but I remember (IF the video doesn't say so, I probably won't watch) Chomsky had a very negative experience in Israel in the early 50's. Thought the Jews in Israel were very racist.

I know a guy who literally wasn’t allowed to own a certain kind of frying pan because not everyone in the kibbutz had one. 🤦‍♂️ They’re just too communistic!

[@marcratner9477]

There is a broad range of kibbutzim and kibbutz movements in Israel. Most are secular, dome very religious. Some are wealthy (their farms and industries became successful), others not so well off. Increasingly there is ownership of private property and personal luxuries, but some have remained true their roots where everything is shared. I lived on two - when I was a young man and up to the challenge.

Thank you for this video. I did not know what they were. When the attack from Hamas happened, the kabbutz gates looked like a gated community for the fancy shmantsy, lol. I was a hippy in early 70s. Not the sex and drugs type but more the visionary. Simple living type. So many of us would have loved Kibbutz life. It also sounds like the early Christian church. Simple living is good for the soul, in my opinion. Homestead life is close and that is popular here, but not with community. Community is best part! I believe if we in America want to have a good future we will create real communities to help each other and work together because the structure is going downhill fast. I hope healing is happening in Israel and rebuilding will be possible with no terrorist predators. Prayers.

The 'priests' in the Old Testament are priests of Moloch. (Preferred of Yaldabaoth the Blind Fool god) The vocalization Molek occurs eight times in the Masoretic Text, predominantly (five times) in Leviticus: Leviticus 18:21 "And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD." * I am the Yahweh * "thy" seed (🤨) Leviticus 20:2: "Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones." * "his" seed (🤔) Leviticus 20:3: "And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name." * "his" seed (😕) Leviticus 20:4: "And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and kill him not" * "his" seed (😬) Leviticus 20:5: "Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people." Two further occurrences connect the practice with Tophet, a place of sacrifice in the Valley of Hinnom (Gehenna, which later acquired the connotation of "Hell"): 2 Kings 23:10: "And he (King Josiah of Judah) defiled Topheth, which is in the valley of the children of Hinnom, that no man might make his son or his daughter to pass through the fire to Molech." * "his" son or "his" daughter (🤢) Jeremiah 32:35: "And they built the high places of Baal, which are in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire unto Molech which I commanded them not, neither came it into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin." * "their" sons/"their" daughters (🤮) * neither came it into my mind (🥸) The practice of "passing through fire" (`abar ba-'esh עָבַר בָּאֵשׁ⁠‎) associated with the name Moloch in the citations above also occurs without reference to Moloch in Deuteronomy 18:10-13, 2 Kings 16:3 and 21:6 and Ezekiel 20:26,31 and 23:37. Isaiah 30:33 has the vocalization melek ("king"), but this is widely accepted as an omission of the Masoretic correctors: "For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and much wood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it." *(LORD = YHWH = Yahweh; see Yahwism) On the other hand, while 1 Kings 11:7 has the vocalization Molek, in "Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon", this is widely accepted as an error for Malkam (Milcom), the specifically Ammonite idol.

you basically glossed over the Stalin aspect. That is the key to everything. we still have these sickos in Israel, ruining our beautiful country. I say this as a former Soviet citizen.

[@lukaskywalker7791]

@@Larrymh07Some say to break the hearts of the Palestinians. Some of those olive trees were 100s of years old. And the planned the raze right before harvest. No olive oil. No money. No more olive trees. This is why, in part, Palestinians dislike the Israelis. The were fig and date groves too.
