30 years ago I lived on a kibbutz right outside of Ashkelon. I wonder if they’ve been hit. Great Kibbutz. Brazilian founded. So everyone spoke Portuguese, Hebrew or English...a great experience for a young person!

Today, diversity means that you can speak Portuguese, Hebrew or English, but you must all believe the same thing: Israel is an oppressor of the Palestinians.
Your's sounds like a wonderful experience....
