Left izzy

 A lot of the early Zionists were said to to be Socialists. The USSR was one of the first countries to recognize Israel as a country, Israel won the 1948 war against the Arabs in large part due to arms shipments that came from Communist Czechoslovakia, many of the early kibbutzim were proto Socialist communities(Noam Chomsky worked on one), David Ben Gurion (founding father of Israel) was the leader of ‘Mapai’ the ‘Workers Party’ which is a Democratic Socialist organization.


A lot of the Old Left was pro Israel as a result. There was enormous sympathy for the new Jewish state because of the WWII, also in 1948 Israel looked like the more progressive option compared to the feudal Arab regimes which surrounded Israel.

A party that rules Israel with the Liberal, national democratic values mentioned here held by the protesters with a touch of Left Wing Zionism 

A left wing Israeli government that is like Israel's version of the Left Anarchist state of Rojava (see here, here)
