I never said the US was an antisemitic country? Both that and 'the US unconditionally supports Israel' are myths. The US position is occasionally cynical but consistent and unemotional.

Anyway, the US policy at the time was determined by the State Department which was very anti-Israel for various reasons. Truman overrode them for the US vote, but was too busy with other affairs to set policy afterwards.

My mistake I thought you supported the person that I originally responded to. Is that why they had kibbutz? I know Israel was more communist at the beginning and it even worked for a while, but they ended it. I remember Milton Friedman talking about how he liked Likud in the 60s.

Well, that was the local Socialists' idea of how to implement "a new society", not much to do with the USSR. It couldn't scale for obvious reasons, and their own descendants abandoned this almost entirely.

Aren't Kibbutz still around?

In the technical sense of 'place still existing', yes. In the sense of 'non-capitalist economic arrangements' most have abandoned their former arrangements.
