SUMMARY:Where is Israel Headed?
DESCRIPTION:Israel’s national election may be the most important election in its history. Where is Israel headed? What are Israelis’ key current concerns and hopes for the future?

Zach then spent over ten years working in Israeli high tech. \nJoel Hodes made Aliyah to Israel 10 years ago. He and his wife split their time between Tel Aviv and Chicago\, spending a half year in each location. Joel is an active protester\, often attending the weekly rallies held in Hostage Square and Kaplan St. in Tel Aviv. Since the war\, Joel volunteers regularly to harvest agriculture on the abandoned kibbutzim near the Gaza border. \nMembers need to register using the Calendar and Member Portal\, including their guests. \nNon-members cannot register themselves and must be registered by a member. \nMember registration \n\n\n\n
